| Summary: |
Purpose: The aim of
the study was to evaluate the species of the
microorganisms and their susceptibility to antibiotics
in congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction in children.
Material and methods: The pus secretion after
lacrimal sac massage was obtained from 81 children with
congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction. The laboratory
diagnostics was performed using typical microbiological
procedures. The modification of these procedures was
24-hour pre-incubation in sugar boullion.
Results: The most frequently isolated bacteria
were Staphylococcus epidermidis (28%) and Staphylococcus
aureus (22%). The isolated staphylococci (only
coagulase-negative species MRSE) were resistant to
methicillin in 2 cases. Streptococci were obtained in
20% isolations: Streptococcus pneumoniae (14%),
Streptococcus viridans (6%). Gram-negative bacilli
Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Moraxella spp. and Candida
albicans were isolated in a few cases. Negative results
of the cultures were obtained in 25% cases.
Conclusions: The microorganisms typically
constituting physiological flora of conjunctival sac may
become the pathogens in the complications of congenital
nasolacrimal duct obstruction in children. |
