Epiphora associated with anomalies of the distal end of the nasolacrimal duct in children over 12 months: endoscopic findings and treatment.
Arq Bras Oftalmol
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto, Universidade de São Paulo, Ribeirão Preto, SP, Brazil.
Purpose: Congenital epiphora can be related to anomalies of the nasolacrimal duct. This study aimed to assess the distal end of the nasolacrimal duct and the outcomes of endoscopic treatment in children older than 12 months with congenital epiphora.
Methods: This retrospective analysis describes the clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes of symptomatic congenital lacrimal obstruction in 32 lacrimal systems of 23 children.
The Value of Lacrimal Gland Ultrasonography and Shear Wave Elastography in the Evaluation of Primary Sjögren's Syndrome: A Cross-Sectional Study.
J Clin Ultrasound
January 2025
Department of Ultrasonography, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China.
Purpose: This study evaluates the effectiveness of lacrimal gland ultrasonography (LGUS) and shear wave elastography (SWE) in distinguishing primary Sjögren's syndrome (PSS) patients from healthy controls and examines their role in assessing disease activity and prognosis.
Methods: A total of 35 PSS patients and 23 age- and gender-matched healthy controls were included. LGUS was used to grade lacrimal gland structure, while SWE assessed gland elasticity.
Orbital and adnexal sarcoidosis: Clinical presentations and management outcomes.
Indian J Ophthalmol
February 2025
Department of Orbit, Oculoplasty, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Services, Sankara Nethralaya, Medical Research Foundation, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
Purpose: To present the clinical features and management outcomes in a series of patients with orbital and adnexal sarcoidosis.
Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of 19 histopathologically proven cases of orbital and adnexal sarcoidosis over the past ten years. The data analyzed included demographic details, clinical and imaging features, and management outcomes.
Morphological analysis of lacrimal punctum using anterior segment optical coherence tomography in different age groups.
Indian J Ophthalmol
February 2025
Department of Orbit and Oculoplasty, Sankara Eye Hospital, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India.
Purpose: To evaluate the lacrimal punctal changes in different age groups using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT).
Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted between January 2023 and January 2024 including healthy subjects between 20 and 80 years. The selected eyes from healthy patients were divided into four age groups (21-35 years, 36-50 years, 51-65 years, 66-80 years), and lower lacrimal puncta were analyzed using AS-OCT.
Immediate Stentless Lacrimal Sac to Conjunctiva Reconstructive Ostomy for Cancer and Trauma Defects: LACROS (Conjunctivodacryocystostomy).
Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg
January 2025
Plastic Surgery Unit, Clínica San Francisco, Tuluá, Colombia.
Purpose: To describe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of lacrimal sac to conjunctiva reconstructive ostomy for proximal lacrimal system reconstruction.
Methods: This retrospective study included 41 patients (32 cancer and 9 trauma; 36 primary and 5 secondary) who underwent lacrimal sac to conjunctiva reconstructive ostomy. The technique involves creating a direct connection between a surgical opening in the lacrimal sac, which maintains its bony attachments to prevent ostomy occlusion, and the medial conjunctiva (medial fornix, bulbar, and palpebral).
