Abstract We report the first case of an unexpected exogenous Listeria monocytogenes endophthalmitis in a previously healthy woman after a cow tail’s sweep, successfully treated with surgical and linezolid. It is the first case carried out with linezolid to treat Listeria endophthalmitis. Therefore, it may challenge the requirement for intravenous antibiotics for long-term treatment.

Intrathecal delivery of baclofen using a subcutaneous pump is an effective long-term treatment for spasticity. Infections of the pocket, however, are often hard to eliminate with intravenous antibiotics. If a 2-stage procedure involving removal of the pump and baclofen withdrawal will create serious problems for the patient, infections can be treated with repetitive local application of gentamicin-impregnated collagen fleece.
