Fulminant Clostridium septicum Endogenous Endophthalmitis Presenting with Intraocular Gas in a Patient with Metastatic Endometrial Cancer.

Clostridium septicum endophthalmitis is a rare, fulminant intraocular infection associated with malignancies. The presence of intraocular gas formation on early imaging should raise suspicion for gas gangrene endophthalmitis, and prompt immediate intervention, though visual prognosis remains extremely poor.

Abstract

Clostridium septicum endophthalmitis is a rare, fulminant intraocular infection associated with malignancies. The presence of intraocular gas formation on early imaging should raise suspicion for gas gangrene endophthalmitis, and prompt immediate intervention, though visual prognosis remains extremely poor.
