  • Look Inside

We observed dacryocystitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus in a 63-year-old male and 82-year-old female. Bacterial culture showed resistance to numerous antibiotics including methicillin in both cases. Culture of nasal mucosa in both cases showed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) which was sensitive to mupirosin. Vancomycin was also effective for the first case. Dacryocystectomy was performed on the second case. While both cases showed favorable clinical course, the cultured nasal mucosa showed persistent presence of MRSA. These cases illustrate that repeated bacterial examination of discharge and nasal mucosa is indicated for patients with recurrent dacryocystitis.
