摘 要:AIM:To examine the effects of patient age,canalicular obstruction,mode of anesthesia,and duration of nasolacrimal intubation on the outcomes of endoscopic endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy(DCR). METHODS: Totally 56 eyes of 46 patients with prolonged epiphora underwent minimally invasive endoscopic endonasal DCR.A successful surgical outcome was defined as a significant improvement in symptoms,adequate water passage from the puncta to the nasal cavity,and patency of the DCR *** outcomes were assessed at least 6mo after ***'s exact test was used to discuss the factors,and then the logistic regression analysis was made by SAS9.4 ***: The overall success rate was 75.0%,and complete resolution was observed in 27 *** success rate was higher for patients with ≥6mo intubation than for those with 〈6mo ***,there were no significant differences in outcomes between groups stratified by age(〈65 or ≥65y),presence or absence of canalicular obstruction,mode of anesthesia(local or general),and use or nonuse of a radiowave *** patient developed subcutaneous emphysema around the eye and nose and one developed subcutaneous hemorrhage after surgery. CONCLUSION: Endoscopic endonasal DCR can be considered safe and minimally invasive with reasonable success rates,particularly when the duration of nasolacrimal intubation is ≥6mo.
