Evaluation of lacrimal drainage system by radionuclide dacryoscintigraphy in patients with epiphora
Introduction: This study was done to determine the site of obstruction in lacrimal drainage system in Asian patients suffering from epiphora and to determine the transit time taken for the tracer material to reach the lacrimal sac and the nasal cavity. Methods:Dacryoscintigraphy was performed using radionuclide technetium-99m pertechnetate (99m...
متن کاملLong-term outcomes after transcanalicular laser dacryocystorhinostomy
The main objective of the present study was to prospectively evaluate long-term surgical success and safety in patients with nasolacrimal duct obstruction treated with a multidiode transcanalicular laser and bicanalicular silicone intubation stenting. 42 patients treated with transcanalicular laser dacryocystorhinostomy for nasolacrimal duct obstruction were prospectively enrolled. In all cases...
متن کاملMRI evaluation of lacrimal drainage after external and endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy.
PURPOSE External and endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy (EX-DCR and EN-DCR, respectively) affect the tear drainage mechanism. This study evaluates the preservation of "lacrimal pump" function in both procedures. METHODS Cases of successful EN-DCR (4 patients) and EX-DCR (4 patients) were included. All patients underwent MRI of the rhinostomy areas, at least 6 months postoperatively. The vertical...

متن کاملInfluence of Septal Deviation on the Prognosis of Transcanalicular Diode Laser-Assisted Dacryocystorhinostomy
Purpose. The objective of the present study is to determine whether the success rate in transcanalicular diode laser-assisted dacryocystorhinostomy (TCL DCR) is influenced by the variant septal deviation (SD). Methods. Patients were divided into two groups: one including operated lacrimal pathways (LP) with no anatomical nasosinusal variants and the other group of LP with SD. This study began o...
