Purpose: To evaluate the role of computed tomography-dacryocystography (CT-DCG) in the management of traumatic secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) and study its correlation with the intra-operative findings.

Methods: Retrospective interventional case series. Eighty-five lacrimal drainage systems (LDS) of 79 patients diagnosed with traumatic SALDO, who underwent pre-operative CT-DCG, between January 2019 and June 2023, were analyzed.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates factors determining the success of nasolacrimal duct intubation versus dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) for patients with primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction (PANDO).
  • Researchers analyzed CT scans of 114 PANDO patients, comparing those who previously experienced failed intubation with those who had successful treatments, focusing on lacrimal sac size and obstruction location.
  • Findings indicate that a smaller lacrimal sac and a higher obstruction site are associated with failed intubation, suggesting that DCR may be a better option for such patients.

Respiratory epithelial cysts are uncommon lesions that can be congenital or acquired cystic malformations. Beyond the respiratory system, the location of the respiratory epithelial cyst has been described in the central nervous system, orbits, and the maxillofacial region. The common etiology is believed to be sequestration or entrapment of the epithelial cells of the paranasal sinus.

Background: An understanding of the anatomical structure is crucial for completing successful endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) surgery. This study aimed to precisely delineate the spatial relationship between the lacrimal sac and the agger nasi cell (ANC) and evaluate the impact of ANC on surgical strategies in endoscopic DCR.

Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study included 110 Han Chinese patients diagnosed with unilateral primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction (PANDO) from January 2021 to June 2023.
