Summary

In Mexico, upper lacrimal duct obstruction (ULDO) is a common pathology, and the standard surgical treatment is closed dracryointubation. Based on statistics from our headquarters, in 30% of cases there is a failure of the technique and recurrence of symptoms due to associated complications. Because of this, the application of a self-stable bicananlicular intubation set is proposed. The aim of this study is to describe the difference in efficacy and complication rate between the application of the self-stable bicanalicular intubation set II (FCI) and closed dacryointubation in patients with ULDO .

Conditions

  • Lacrimal Duct Obstruction
  • Lacrimal Apparatus Diseases
  • Lacrimal Stenosis
  • Lacrimal Elimination

Interventions

DEVICE

Bicanalicular intubation

Placement of the bicanalicular intubation set at each lacrimal point and fixed by means of its flaps at the level of the opening of the lacrimal sac.

PROCEDURE

Closed dacryointubation

Placement of dacryointubation tube through the canaliculus until it reaches the medial wall of the lacrimal sac and then passed the nasolacrimal duct until it empties out at the level of the inferior meatus.
