Resumo: Description of two cases of infectious keratitis in patients after Boston Type 1 keratoprosthesis (Boston KPro) implantation. The first case refers to a patient that had the device indicated due to limbal deficiency secondary to severe dry eye who presented a fungal infection by Aerobasidium pullulans that was successfully treated with amphotericin B eye drops. The second case reports a patient with Boston KPro implantation due to previous corneal transplant rejection showing bacterial keratitis in the fourth postoperative month. The etiologic agent was identified asStreptococcus sp and topical treatment with vancomycin was effective. The importance of postoperative surveillance in Boston KPro eyes is discussed.

O primeiro caso refere-se a uma paciente na qual o dispositivo foi indicado por deficiência límbica secundária a olho seco grave, no qual foi identificado infecção fúngica por aerobasidium pullulans, tratada com sucesso com colírio de anfotericina B. O segundo caso reporta uma paciente com implante de Boston KPro por falências de transplantes de córnea prévios, que apresentou ceratite bacteriana no quarto mês pós-operatório. O agente etiológico identificado foi Streptococcus sp e o tratamento tópico com vancomicina foi eficaz. Discute-se a importância da vigilância pós-operatória em olhos submetidos ao implante de ceratoprótese.Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Section of Cornea and External DiseaseUNIFESP, Section of Cornea and External DiseaseSciELOConselho Brasileiro de OftalmologiaUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Nascimento, Heloisa Moraes do [UNIFESP]Oliveira, Lauro Augusto de [UNIFESP]Hofling-Lima, Ana Luisa [UNIFESP]2015-06-14T13:43:02Z2015-06-14T13:43:02Z2011-04-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion127-129application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0004-27492011000200012Arquivos Brasileiros de Oftalmologia.
