Congenital Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction (CNLDO): A Review [PDF]
Congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) is a common condition causing excessive tearing or mucoid discharge from the eyes, due to blockage of the nasolacrimal duct system. Nasolacrimal duct obstruction affects as many as 20% children aged <1 year worldwide and is often resolved without surgery.

Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD
Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

Abstract IgG4‐related chronic rhinosinusitis (IgG4‐related CRS) is gaining recognition among various specialized physicians. As a systemic disease involving multiple organs, IgG4‐related CRS is still not widely recognized as an independent clinical entity. Given the complexity of diagnosing autoimmune‐related multisystem diseases, early recognition and

"Double eyes” sign of congenital bilateral dacryocystoceles [PDF]
Dacryocystocele is caused by nasolacrimal duct obstruction and results in cystic dilatation of the proximal part of the nasolacrimal duct, which is located inferomedial to the orbit, leading to fluid accumulation.

Nasolacrimal duct obstruction due to periodontal disease in domestic rabbit, Oryctolagus cuniculus - case report: Obstrução do ducto nasolacrimal devido à doença periodontal em coelho doméstico, Oryctolagus cuniculus - relato de caso [PDF]
Rabbits are animals with a high prevalence of periodontal diseases, which can be explained by anatomical particularities. The roots of the incisive and premolar teeth of the maxilla are very close to the lacrimal duct, and in addition, these animals have
