Purpose:
|
the purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of monocanalicular intubation in congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction in children more than 5 years of age.
|
|
Methods:
|
retrospective case series study was done in children over 5 years of age diagnosed with congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction who underwent monocanalicular intubation. Success rate were evaluated subjectively by asking their parents about persistent symptoms and objectively by dye disappearance test in clinical examination.
|
|
Results:
|
a total 44 eyes of 38 patients with a mean age of 7.42±2.33 (range 5 to 15 year of aged) were included. Success rate was 59.09 % and the rate of secondary surgical intervention was 25% of all cases (61.11% of failed cases).
|
|
Conclusion:
|
primary monocanalicular intubation maintains a good success rate in incomplete complex congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction regardless of age.
