BACKGROUND: Although endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is a standard procedure for nasolacrimal duct obstruction (NLDO), the failure rate remains approximately 10%. A small lacrimal sac is considered the main reason for surgical failure. We explored the efficacy of endoscopic DCR for the treatment of NLDO with a small lacrimal sac.
METHODS: The clinical data of 72 patients (88 eyes) diagnosed with NLDO and undergoing endoscopic DCR from 2012 to 2020, with at least 24 months of follow-up were retrospectively collected. Intraoperatively, the Rosenmüller valves were fully exposed, mucosal flaps were preserved to cover the naked bone, and a silicone tube was implanted if necessary. Postoperative intervention was performed if necessary. The main outcome measures were symptomatic improvement and objective ostium patency.
RESULTS: Eighty-eight eyes of 72 patients were divided into two groups: the refractory group (34 patients, 47 eyes), with a small lacrimal sac (≤ 5 mm in diameter), and the simple group (38 patients, 41 eyes). Patients with small lacrimal sacs were more prone to bilateral eye disease than those in the simple group (P = 0.014) and required a longer postoperative follow-up (P < 0.001). Refractory NLDO and simple NLDO had a success rate of 91.5% and 95.1%, respectively, with no significant difference.
CONCLUSION: Endoscopic DCR for refractory NLDO with a small lacrimal sac could achieve a beneficial result by exposing the Rosenmüller valves, preserving mucosal flaps, implanting necessary intubation, and intervening postoperatively. Thus, a small lacrimal sac should not be regarded as a contraindication to surgery.
