Outcomes of Conventional External Dacryocystorhinostomy with and without Mitomycin C: Experience from Eastern Nepal

Nepalese Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Introduction: Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is the commonest surgery for nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Inhibition of the scarring process within the anastomosis and rhinostomy site which has been attributed to the failure of this procedure, might improve the success rate of DCR.
