摘要
Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most common organisms causing endogenous endophthalmitis in East Asia. Herein we report the cases of two diabetic patients with K. pneumoniae renal abscess and endophthalmitis. Although endogenous endophthalmitis is rare, both internists and ophthalmologists should be alert to the possibility of endogenous endophthalmitis in diabetic patients caused by K. pneumoniae renal abscess. Intravitreal ceftazidime, amikacin, and corticosteroid at an appropriate dosage are required for cases of endogenous Klebsiella endophthalmitis.
