Pediatric endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy.

This is a case series with chart review from 1997 to 2010 to determine results of endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy in children. Thirty-seven children underwent removal of the medial wall (RMW) of the lacrimal sac (LS) and 2 had lacrimal stents inserted because they had external fistulae and small cicatrized LS. Parameters of success were (1) resolution of epiphora, (2) no further attacks of dacryocystitis, and (3) patency of neofistula.
