Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy Outcomes: The Role of Obstruction Levels and Preoperative Dacryocystography

Findings such as a small lacrimal sac indicating contracture, proximal obstructions, and patency on DCG were identified as predictors of worse surgical outcomes. However, endoscopic DCR often produces favorable outcomes even in cases with patency and proximal obstructions.

Abstract

Findings such as a small lacrimal sac indicating contracture, proximal obstructions, and patency on DCG were identified as predictors of worse surgical outcomes. However, endoscopic DCR often produces favorable outcomes even in cases with patency and proximal obstructions.
