| Popis: |
Endogenous endophthalmitis (EE) is a rare intraocular infection resulting from hematogenous microorganism spread, typically associated with underlying risk factors. We present a 52-year-old female with poorly-controlled diabetes and urolithiasis who developed EE following double-J stent placement for obstructive pyelonephritis. EE may occur due to increased intrarenal pressure during urological procedures. Timely recognition and intervention for rare complications like EE in urological patients are essential. This case highlights the importance of vigilance and collaboration between urologists and ophthalmologists in managing such cases. |
