ABSTRACT
Objective: Characterize first isolating cases of
Corynebacterium macginleyi identified in ocular samples
obtained in patients delivered with conjunctivitis at “Ramon Pando Ferrer” Cuban Ophthalmology Institute.
Methods: A methodological characterization of six isolating cases taken from 200 ocular tests delivered to
patients at Microbiology Laboratory at “Ramón Pando Ferrer” Hospital, since May to October 2011, with the
conjunctiva or the ocular annexes. The ocular test taken and the
Corynebacterium macginleyi identification,
was delivered through conventional methods and the commercial system API Coryne (bioMérieux).The
antimicrobial oversensitive was determined by the method of diffusion on disk or Bauer-Kirby.
Results: Corynebacterium macginleyi was notified for the first time in Cuba as ocular pathogen in six
patients (3,4%). It was associated with underlying factors (cataract surgery and chronic blepharitis), was
more frequently in women(5/1).From the 6 strains studied,4 (66,6%) were sensitive to antimicrobial
investigated and 2(33,3%),showed indiscriminately norfloxacina and ciprofloxacin resistance.
Conclusions: The
Corynebacterium macginleyi identification for the first time in Cuba points out the need
to introduce and to improve the diagnosis in the laboratories of Microbiology in the country.
