Endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy. (English)
- Abstract:
In childhood the most frequent lacrimal disease is the obstruction of lacrimal duct, manifested as epiphora and repeated conjunctivitis, especially during the first year of life. Dacryocystorhinostomy is performed to deviate lacrimal fluid through an artificial aperture in the lacrimal bone and thus obtaining a rhinostomy. Endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy is a procedure of one phase permitting correction of concomitant illnesses, such as septal deviation or chronic sinusitis that may be a causal factor of lacrimal obstruction. The key for correct indication is excluding presacal stenosis, in which endoscopic procedure is not recommended. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
- Abstract:
La enfermedad lagrimal más frecuente en los niños es la obstrucción de la vía lagrimal, que se manifiesta como epífora y conjuntivitis de repetición, sobre todo durante el primer año de vida. La dacriocistorrinostomía se realiza para desviar el flujo lagrimal a través de una abertura artificial en el hueso lagrimal y obtener una rinostomía. La dacriocistorrinostomía endoscópica es un procedimiento de una fase para corregir las afecciones asociadas, como desviación septal o sinusitis crónica, que pueden ser un factor causal de la obstrucción lagrimal. La clave para la indicación correcta es excluir la estenosis presacal, en la que no se recomienda el procedimiento endoscópico. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
