Bicanalicular silicone intubation in acquired partial nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
PURPOSE To assess the effectiveness of bicanalicular silicone intubation (SI) in acquired partial nasolacrimal duct (NLD) obstruction. DESIGN Retrospective nonrandomized case series METHODS 72 tear ducts from 53 patients with severe epiphora due to acquired partial NLD obstruction underwent bicanalicular SI. Mean age at intubation was 55.9 years. The silicone tubes were removed after, on av...
متن کاملMonocanalicular versus bicanalicular silicone intubation for congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
PURPOSE To compare the success rate of monocanalicular versus bicanalicular silicone intubation of the nasolacrimal duct for congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO). METHODS In a prospective randomized clinical trial, 70 eyes of 57 children with CNLDO underwent either monocanalicular silicone intubation (MCI) (n = 35 eyes) or bicanalicular silicone intubation (BCI) (n = 35 eyes). All...
متن کاملSilicone Intubation Does not Improve the Success of Dacryocystorhinostomy in Primary Acquired Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction
The role of silicone intubation in routine dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) surgery remains unclear. Recent studies provide a higher level of evidence against intubation in DCR. Intubation of the nasolacrimal duct with silicone tubes has largely arisen as a result of history, anecdote and the evolution of DCR surgery rather than being based upon sound evidence. Silicone intubation has gained popular...
متن کاملoutcomes of external dacryocystorhinostomy without intubation versus monocanalicular intubation in primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction
purpose: to compare success rates of external dacryocystorhinostomy (dcr) with and without bicanalicular silicone intubation for management of primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction. methods: in a randomized clinical trial study, 52 patients with primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction underwent external dcr. patients were randomly enrolled into two groups. in the 1st group, exte...
متن کاملEfficacy of endoscopic guided anterograde 3 mm balloon dacryoplasty with silicone intubation in treatment of acquired partial nasolacrimal duct obstruction in adults.
AIM To report the outcomes of endoscopic guided anterograde 3 mm balloon dacryoplasty with silicone intubation in patients with acquired partial nasolacrimal duct obstructions in adults. METHODS Retrospective case series, included 21 eyes with partially obstructed nasolacrimal ducts of 12 patients. All the 21 ducts were initially probed and the probe confirmed with an endoscope in the inferio...
