Popis: Assessment of the density of endothelial cells after usage of gentamicin in irrigation-aspiration fluid.60 patients subjected to extracapsular cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation. In 30 eyes irrigation was performed with Ringer fluid (group I) and in 30 eyes Ringer fluid with gentamicin (group II) 4 mg gentamicin were added to 500 ml of Ringer fluid obtaining the concentration 8 micrograms/ml. Evaluation of endothelial cells density was carried before operation, 1 month and 6 months after.Percentage endothelial cells loss in group I was 7.8% 1 month postoperatively and 14.5% 6 months after operation and in group II 8.5% and 14.87%, respectively.Gentamicin added to irrigation-aspiration fluid doesn't cause enhanced endothelial cells loss during extracapsular cataract extraction.
