Probing in adults with nasolacrimal duct obstruction
Aim: To investigate the efficacy of probing in adults with epiphora due to nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Patients and methods: A retrospective study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of probing and irrigation of 72 lacrimal systems in 60 adults with nasolacrimal duct obstruction where epiphora was the only symptom. At follow-up, the procedure was considered successful if the epiphora h...
متن کاملPreventing Silicone Tube Extrusion after Nasolacrimal Duct Intubation in Children
Herein we report our experience with a simple technique for reducing the rate of silicone tube extrusion after nasolacrimal duct (NLD) intubation for congenital NLD obstruction. Medical records of children older than 2 years, with or without history of failed probing, who had undergone NLD intubation with a Crawford silicone tube over a period of 4 years were reviewed. In all subjects, one end ...
متن کاملsilicone tube intubation with intraoperative mitomycin c for nasolacrimal duct obstruction in adults: a prospective randomized double-masked study
purpose: to assess the efficacy of intraoperative mitomycin c (mmc) during silicone intubation (si) as a substitute for dacryocystorhinostomy (dcr) in nasolacrimal duct (nld) obstruction. methods: in a prospective, randomized, double-blind study, 88 candidates of dcr for nld obstruction were randomly assigned into two groups of si with application of either mmc (0.2 mg/ml for 2 minutes) or plac...
متن کاملBicanalicular 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 کاملProbing without irrigation in children with congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of probing, without fluorescein irrigation, as a primary treatment for epiphora and/or mucous discharge, secondary to congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) METHODS: The medical records of nine-two children (127 eyes) with CNLDO who underwent a single probing without the use of fluorescein irrigation between January 2006 an...
