Purpose:To evaluate cases that received endoscopy-assisted vitreous surgery for fungal endophthalmitis. Cases:This retrospective study comprised 10 eyes of 8 patients. Nine patients had endogenous and one had exogenous endophthalmitis. The age ranged from 44 to 66 years,average 56 years. Method:A 3-port closed vitreous surgery was performed with adjunct use of fiber-optic endoscope. Patients received systemic antifungal agents. Results:Surgery could be performed even when transpupillary observation was not possible. After follow-up for 6 to 72months,average 30months,anatomical improvement was obtained in 8 eyes. Visual acuity improved in 5 eyes by 2 lines or more,remained unchanged in 3,and deteriorated in 2. Conclusion:Endoscopy-assisted vitreous surgery was useful for fungal endophthalmitis,particularly when transpupillary observation was difficult or impossible.
