摘要：
Purpose: To report the first case of acute Abiotrophia defectiva endophthalmitis post-keratoplasty and review the current literature. Methods: A 47-year-old male, post-keratoplasty, presented with vision loss and severe anterior chamber reaction. Diagnostic investigations included vitreous cultures and molecular analysis. Results: Abiotrophia defectiva was identified. Despite aggressive treatment, visual acuity remained low. We reviewed a total of 14 post-procedural cases of A. defectiva endophthalmitis, focusing on antibiotic and steroidal treatment regimens and long-term prognosis. Conclusion: We emphasize aggressive treatment of external disease prior to intraocular surgery. In cases of A. defectiva endophthalmitis, we advocate judicious use of steroids.
