DACRYOCYSTORHINOSTOMY, the operation of choice in chronic dacryocystitis, is performed in almost all cases in this clinic by a special technique. Toti (1904) first described the drainage of the lacrimal sac by removal of the bony wall. Kuhnt (1914) stitched the nasal mucosa to the periosteum. Ohn (1920) first sutured the nasal mucosa to the sac. The operation was modified by Dupuy-Dutemps and B...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Silicone intubation has been shown to be successful in the management of epiphora in children. The effectiveness of this procedure was assessed in adults. METHODS 70 eyes from 53 patients underwent nasolacrimal intubation. Mean age at intubation was 54.7 years. Mean follow up period was 15 months. The results were based on improvement of symptoms. RESULTS Complete resolution...
A review of endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (EDCR) performed in University Hospital from 1998 till early 2001 were carried out. They were reviewed for indication, functional results, complications and other associated factors. Eleven patients (6 female and 5 male) were reviewed. All had unilateral nasolacrimal duct (NLD) obstruction (6 right, 5 left). Their ages range from 6 to 73 years. All 1...
PURPOSE To assess the usefulness of cone beam CT (CBCT) for dacryocystography (DCG) using either direct syringing or passive application of contrast medium. METHODS Ten consecutive patients with epiphora who had CBCT-DCG in a sitting position were retrospectively analyzed. CBCT-DCGs were performed using 2 techniques: direct syringing with contrast medium or using the passive technique, where ...
rimal punctum protrusion have not been previously reported, and only a significant negative correlation between the severity of punctal protrusion and tear clearance has been reported in the literature [5]. The patient showed a lower eyelid laxity of grade 1 during the initial examination and it was unclear whether the inability to discharge tears was caused by protrusion. Early surgical treatm...
BACKGROUND Primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the lacrimal sac is extremely rare, with most reported cases representing secondary involvement of a systemic malignancy.

Tear Stasis Caused by Severely Protruded Lacrimal Puncta Treated by Novel Punctal Fixation Technique
Dear Editor, The causes of epiphora can be separated into two categories: (1) reflex epiphora, which is caused by surface damage to the eye or infectious ocular disease, and (2) lacrimal pumping failure, which is caused by anatomical and functional failure in the outflow tract due to abnormal position of the lacrimal puncta or closure of the nasolacrimal duct [1,2]. The abnormal position of the...
