Resumen

Objetivo: Comunicar un caso de uveítis anterior inducida por fármacos, secundaria al uso de moxifloxacino intracameral. Caso clínico: Un paciente colombiano de 64 años de edad presentó dolor ocular severo y fotofobia en su ojo izquierdo 15 días después de cirugía de catarata. En la evaluación del especialista en oftalmología y glaucoma se observó dispersión pigmentaria en la cámara anterior y el ángulo camerular, inflamación severa del segmento anterior y presión intraocular elevada. La escasa respuesta al tratamiento por sospecha de origen vírico y la exclusión de otras posibles etiologías, llevaron a la conclusión de uveítis anterior inducida por moxifloxacino intracameral. Conclusión e importancia: Presentamos el segundo caso publicado a nivel mundial sobre uveítis anterior secundaria a moxifloxacino intracameral, que raramente puede causar uveítis hipertensiva que puede confundirse con uveítis vírica. Esto aporta evidencia sobre la importancia del seguimiento postoperatorio por parte del cirujano para una derivación y tratamiento precoz de estos casos.

abstract = "Purpose: To report a case of a drug-induced anterior uveitis secondary to the use of intracameral moxifloxacin. Case report: A 64-year-old Colombian male patient presented with severe ocular pain and photophobia in his left eye 15 days after cataract surgery. In the ophthalmology and glaucoma specialist evaluation, pigment dispersion in the anterior chamber and camerular angle, severe anterior segment inflammation, and elevated intraocular pressure were observed. Poor response to treatment for a suspected viral origin and exclusion of other possible etiologies, led to the conclusion of intracameral moxifloxacin induced anterior uveitis. Conclusion and importance: We present the second published case worldwide about anterior uveitis secondary to intracameral moxifloxacin, which may rarely cause hypertensive uveitis that may be confused with viral uveitis. This provides evidence on the importance of postoperative follow-up by the surgeon for an early referral and treatment of these cases.",
