" PURPOSE: To evaluate acute-onset postoperative endophthalmitis occurring at an academic medical center and to compare rates over the last 25 years at a single institution.DESIGN: Retrospective, consecutive case series.METHODS: Medical records were reviewed for all patients diagnosed with acute-onset postoperative nosocomial endophthalmitis from 2002 through 2009 associated with surgery at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute.RESULTS: The 8-year frequency of acute-onset postoperative endophthalmitis was 0.025% (14 of 56 672 intraocular surgeries). The rate was 0.028% (8/28 568) for cataract surgery and 0.011% (2/18 492) for pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Both PPV endophthalmitis cases followed 20-gauge surgery and no cases followed small-gauge, transconjunctival PPV (n = 2262). Three cases occurred following penetrating keratoplasty (3/ 2788, 0.108%). The most common bacterial isolate was Staphylococcus (n = 7, 50%). Initial treatment involved ocular paracentesis (n = 8, 57%) or vitrectomy (n = 5, 36%), in combination with injection of intraocular antibiotics (n = 14, 100%). Vancomycin and ceftazidime were used in 13 eyes (93%) and intraocular steroids were given initially to 9 eyes (64%). Final visual acuity was >= 20/200 in 9 eyes (64%) and 2 eyes (14%) were no light perception. At this institution since 1984, there has been a statistically significant trend for a decreasing rate of acute-onset postoperative endophthalmitis (1984- 1994: 0.09%; 1995-2001: 0.05%; 2002-2009: 0.025%; P
