The laceration was repaired the next day, and intravitreal antibiotics injections were given. She developed acute fulminant endophthalmitis the following day and underwent pars plana vitrectomy, anterior chamber washout, and intravitreal antibiotics injection. Cultures isolated <jats:italic>Propionibacterium acnes<\/jats:italic>. A retinal detachment was noted after 48 days, requiring a second pars plana vitrectomy and tamponade with sulfur hexafluoride gas. The retina remained attached. Visual acuity at 14 months follow-up was 20\/200. Case 2: A 42-year-old male developed endophthalmitis two days after a penetrating injury of the right eye by a cat claw. Pars plana vitrectomy and intravitreal antibiotics injections were performed the same day. Cultures identified <jats:italic>Pasteurella multocida<\/jats:italic>. The patient progressed to panophthalmitis in 24\u00a0h and received intravenous antibiotics. He developed proliferative vitreoretinopathy with recurrent retinal detachments requiring multiple vitrectomies. His visual acuity was hand motions at 7 months follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions and relevance<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Open globe injuries caused by cat claw may result in hyperacute and acute endophthalmitis. <jats:italic>Propionibacterium acnes<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Pasteurella multocida<\/jats:italic> were isolated from the two cases reported here.
