|
A 5-year-old intact female Maltese, a 4-year-old neutered male Chihuahua, and a 5-year-old neutered maleMaltese were referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University for assessment of traumaticcorneal laceration accompanied by anterior lens capsule disruption by cat claw. Severe uveitis, hypopyon, fibrinousexudate, diffuse corneal edema, and/or glaucoma were observed. B-mode ocular ultrasound showed lens capsule ruptureand hyperechoic lens in all three cases. Despite aggressive treatments, the three eyes continued to deteriorate withendophthalmitis, leading to enucleation. Septic implantation syndrome associated with phakitis, severe pyogranulomatousendophthalmitis, and keratitis was confirmed by histopathological examination.
