The study analyzes the frequency of acute endophthalmitis occurrence after cataract surgery, the risk factors, characteristic symptoms, and the effectiveness of peri-operative prevention measures. Material and methods. The study retrospectively analyzed 59 670 cases of patients operated for cataract in 2017\u20142021. To prevent infections, patients received four instillations of third generation fluoroquinolone (quinolone antibiotic) in the course of two days prior to cataract phacoemulsification (PE), and two instillations immediately (1 hour and 30 minutes) before the surgery; three-minutes treatment of the cornea, conjunctival sac and periocular skin with 5% povidone iodine before the surgery; and as the last step of surgery, patients received subconjunctival injection of 0.05 g cefazolin with 2 mg dexamethasone. Follow-up after surgery included four injections of 0.5% levofloxacin in the course of 7\u201410 days, and 0.1% dexamethasone for two weeks, or fixed combination of tobramycin and dexamethasone four times per day for two weeks. The criteria for acute endophthalmitis are: loss of spatial vision, absence of red reflex, pronounced thickening of the choroid, suspended particulates in the retrovitreal space and the vitreous observed with ultrasonography in the early postoperative period (day 4\u20147 after surgery). Results and discussion. There were 32 patients (0.054%) diagnosed with acute endophthalmitis. Posterior capsule rupture was the main complicative risk factor of endophthalmitis development (OR=11.75, p=0.026). Main diagnostic criteria of acute endophthalmitis were hypopyon (OR=22.5, p=0.001) and absence of red reflex (OR=19.59, p&lt;0.001). The use of the fixed combination of tobramycin and dexamethasone was associated with 5.8-times higher risk of acute endophthalmitis than separate application of levofloxacin and dexamethasone (p=0.042). Conclusions. Povidone iodine and third generation fluoroquinolone as a method of acute endophthalmitis prevention after cataract surgery demonstrate comparable efficacy to intracameral antibiotic injections.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.17116\/oftalma202313902152","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,17]],"date-time":"2023-04-17T16:23:17Z","timestamp":1681748597000},"page":"52","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Clinical features and treatment of endophthalmitis after cataract surgery"],"prefix":"10.17116","volume":"139","author":[{"given":"V.P.","family":"Nikolaenko","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Saint Petersburg Multifield Hospital No. 2","place":["St. Petersburg, Russia"]},{"name":"Saint Petersburg State University","place":["St. Petersburg, Russia"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0776-4065","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"D.F.","family":"Belov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Saint Petersburg Multifield Hospital No. 2","place":["St. Petersburg, Russia"]},{"name":"Saint Petersburg State University","place":["St. Petersburg, Russia"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"6743","reference":[{"key":"key-10.17116\/oftalma202313902152-1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/ijo.IJO_1728_18"},{"key":"key-10.17116\/oftalma202313902152-2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/02713683.2021.1874023"},{"key":"key-10.17116\/oftalma202313902152-3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1469-0691.12118"},{"key":"key-10.17116\/oftalma202313902152-4","unstructured":"Astakhov YuS, Nikolaenko VP.
