[Endophthalmitis or TASS--case report]. / Endoftalmita sau TASS--caz clinic.

ABSTRACT

We present the case of a 65-years-old female with a history of endophthalmitis after residual cortex aspiration postextracapsular cataract extraction. The patient was admitted for cataract surgery on the other eye. After phacoemulsification she developed a series of signs and symptoms on the anterior eye segment which plead for the diagnosis of endophthalmitis or toxic anterior segment syndrome (TASS). Under specific therapy the evolution has been favorable.
