Restoring the Flow: Observational Outcomes of Endoscopic Endonasal Dacryocystorhinostomy in a Tertiary Care Institution

EE DCR demonstrates high anatomical and functional success with low complication rates, offering a minimally invasive and effective alternative to external DCR. The procedure yields substantial improvements in patient symptoms and quality of life. Further prospective studies with larger cohorts and longer follow-up periods are warranted to validate these findings.

Abstract

EE DCR demonstrates high anatomical and functional success with low complication rates, offering a minimally invasive and effective alternative to external DCR. The procedure yields substantial improvements in patient symptoms and quality of life. Further prospective studies with larger cohorts and longer follow-up periods are warranted to validate these findings.
