Abstract. A 66-year-old female developed high fever. She was diagnosed with septicemia secondary to liver abscess 17 days later. She was referred to us for decreased vision in her right eye since 10 days before. Her right visual acuity was light perception. The right eye showed severe uveitis with vitreous opacity. Klebsiella pneumoniae was isolated from the blood.The intraocular leions responded well to systemic and ocular treatments. Tractional retinal detachment developed 3 months after onset. Vitrectomy led to retinal reattachment and improvement of visual acuity to 0.1. Surgically obtained specimens showed inflammatory cells and fibrin in the proliferative membrane and the vitreous. This case illustrates that vitrectomy may be effective for metastatic endophthalmitis due to Klebsiella pneumoniae.
