Transcanalicular Diode Laser-assisted Dacryocystorhinostomy for the Treatment of Primary Acquired Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction.
Today's gold standard in the treatment of infrasaccal primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction (PANDO) is external dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR), a relatively invasive procedure that can be performed after failure of recanalizing treatments. However, with progress in the field of diode laser technology, new approaches have emerged. Laser-assisted transcanalicular DCR with subsequent bicanal...

متن کاملMonocanalicular versus bicanalicular intubation in external dacryocystorhinostomy for primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
PURPOSE Monocanalicular intubation offers potential advantages over bicanalicular intubation including ease of removal and use of only one canaliculus. Recent reports suggest equal outcomes with both types of tubes for nasolacrimal intubation. This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of monocanalicular intubation during external dacryocystorhinostomy. METHODS Fifty-seven lacrimal systems of 5...
متن کاملResults of endoscopic mechanical dacryocystorhinostomy in primary nasolacrimal duct obstruction
Background: Epiphora and dacryocystitis following nasolacrimal duct obstruction are considered as two widely common complaints among the patients and dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is the treatment choice for such conditions. Objective: To determine success rate of DCR with endoscopic and mechanical techniques. Methods: In this prospective analytic study 67 patients were operated during 2000-2003....
