Objective: The objective of this study was to confirm that the standardized endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) technique routinely performed in adults can be used in children.
Materials And Methods: A consecutive series of children undergoing endonasal DCR between 2003 and 2017 was analysed. The surgical procedure consisted of: preoperative CT scan, anatomical localization of the ideal surgical zone, access to the nasal cavity via an optional planned enlargement, creation of a mucoperiosteal flap, osteotomy with rongeurs and equatorial resection of the medial wall of the lacrimal sac.

Background: Tearing and conjunctivitis in children are commonly due to lacrimal drainage system obstruction. Congenital nasolacrimal obstruction is a common pathology treated by probing with or without silicone stent insertion, depending upon the age of the child. The silicone stent is self-retaining and placed for at least one month.

Objective: Congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction can be treated with a spectrum of techniques, starting with conservative massage to more invasive dacryocystorhinostomy. There has been controversy regarding the optimal treatment procedure. We introduced a unique technique to treat congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction and analyzed its success rate and complications.
