摘要：
Corticosteroids have proven their effectiveness in the treatment of cystoid macular edema. Especially after an intravitreal injection. Triamcinolone acetonide is the most commonly used in the treatment of macular edema. Noninfectious endophthalmitis is a form of endophthalmitis that can occur in the absence of a defined germ after an intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide.We report here the case of three diabetic patients, who presented with visual blur, three days after an intra vitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection performed in the right eye.The vitreous inflammation resolved spontaneously in the first two cases after three weeks, and after four weeks for the third. The diagnosis of sterile endophthalmitis was made in view of the spontaneous resolution of the inflammation without the use of intravitreal injection of antibiotics and/or vitreoretinal surgery.
