Canalicular Laceration Repair With Three Different Intubation Techniques: A Retrospective Study

This study demonstrates that bicanalicular silicone intubation was associated with the highest complication rate, whereas monocanalicular intubation had the lowest. Indicating that the choice of intubation method influences the occurrence of complications. Despite this, no significant differences were observed between the intubation types in terms of anatomical or functional success, as both anatomical success and functional success were high across all groups. A strong negative correlation between complications and anatomical success, suggesting that more complications lead to poorer anatomical outcomes.

Abstract

This study demonstrates that bicanalicular silicone intubation was associated with the highest complication rate, whereas monocanalicular intubation had the lowest. Indicating that the choice of intubation method influences the occurrence of complications. Despite this, no significant differences were observed between the intubation types in terms of anatomical or functional success, as both anatomical success and functional success were high across all groups. A strong negative correlation between complications and anatomical success, suggesting that more complications lead to poorer anatomical outcomes.
