Pediatric Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2012
This is a case series with chart review from 1997 to 2010 to determine results of endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy in children. Thirty‐seven children underwent removal of the medial wall (RMW) of the lacrimal sac (LS) and 2 had lacrimal stents inserted because they had external fistulae and small cicatrized LS. Parameters of success were (1) resolution

Endoscopic inferior dacryocystorhinostomy

Clinical Otolaryngology and Allied Sciences, 1998
Conventional dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) usually involves extensive removal of bone at the lacrimal fossa and hence risks disruption of the lacrimal pump mechanism. A physiological operation for nasal lacrimal blockage is described whereby only the inferior portion of the lacrimal sac and the adjacent duct are marsupialized into the nose. The operation

Endoscopic laser dacryocystorhinostomy

The Laryngoscope, 1994
AbstractEndoscopic laser dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) enables an obstructed lacrimal sac to be opened through an intranasal approach, avoiding the need for a skin incision. The holmiumtyttrium aluminum garnet (holmium:YAG) laser is well‐suited for this procedure because of its properties of fiberoptic delivery, effective bone cutting, and precise soft ...

Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy: Modified Technique

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2004
BACKGROUNDDacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is a surgical technique that has been increasingly used by otolaryngologists in recent years due to the improved endonasal approach with endoscopes. Although it was first described in 1893 by Caldwell, it has been performed by ophthalmologists.OBJECTIVESEven though permeability results are similar in long‐term ...

Endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy

Operative Techniques in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2008
A review of 45 patients who underwent endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (EDCR) from 1998 to 2005 was done. Only patients who had complete notes and had Jones tube removed at least three months before the study were included. Our experience with EDCR concludes it to be an easy, efficient treatment for nasolacrimal duct obstruction with minimal ...

Meningoencephalitis Following Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2019
An 81-year-old man with unilateral nasolacrimal duct obstruction underwent routine endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy and 2 days postoperatively developed a severe headache and rigors. Subsequent CT and MRI imaging demonstrated a defect in the floor of the right anterior cranial fossa, which possibly was damaged during the operation, and ...
