Аннотация
PURPOSE: To report severe symptomatic complications following bilateral insertion of Herrick lacrimal plugs.
DESIGN: Interventional case report.
METHODS: Bilateral clinical, surgical, and histologic findings in a patient with surgical revision of canaliculi after plug insertion.
RESULTS: A 55-year-old patient presented with recurrent inflammation, discharge, and epiphora 24 months after insertion of lacrimal plugs; surgical intervention and partial resection of the cicatrized canaliculi was necessary. Light microscopic histology revealed canaliculi destruction, reactive tissue embedding of the plugs, and dissociated plug material.
CONCLUSIONS: The application of Herrick lacrimal plugs may not be reversible and may require invasive surgical intervention.
