Department of Nuclear Medicine, Kartal Dr. Lutfi Kirdar City Hospital, Istanbul, Türkiye.
The aim of our study was to evaluate the compatibility of lacrimal syringe test with dacryoscintigraphy (DSG) in the postoperative evaluation of external dacryocystorhinostomy (Ext-DCR) surgery. Thirty eyes of 30 patients suffering from unilateral epiphora with discharge and showing complete obstruction on lacrimal irrigation test were included in the study. Patients with dysfunctional lacrimal pump function, revision surgery, partial obstruction, and ocular surface diseases were not included in the study.

Purpose: We evaluated the surgical outcomes and management of complications associated with the minimally invasive conjunctivodacryocystorhinostomy using the StopLoss Jones (SLJT) tube of proximal lacrimal canal obstruction.
Methods: The study retrospectively included 22 eyes of 15 patients who underwent SLJT for proximal canalicular obstruction. Age, gender, follow-up duration, etiology of canalicular obstruction, previous surgery, tube size, complications, and the need for additional surgical intervention were assessed.

Article Synopsis
- A total of 15 patients (5 men, 10 women) underwent the procedure, which involved excising the nevus while placing a silicone tube to support the area; surgeries lasted about 22 minutes on average.
- Post-surgery results showed no recurrence of nevi, healthy healing with normal eyelid appearance, and no significant complications observed during follow-up periods ranging from 6 months to 2 years.
Long-term Outcomes of a Minimally Invasive Surgical Approach in Paediatric Patients with Congenital Dacryocystoceles.

Klinik für Hals-Nasen-Ohrenheilkunde, Universitätsklinikum Essen, Deutschland.
Article Synopsis
- Congenital dacryocystoceles are uncommon birth defects linked to blocked tear ducts, presenting symptoms like excessive tearing and swelling around the eye.
- A new minimally invasive endoscopic procedure was tested on 19 infants and young children, focusing on resecting the affected tissue without further manipulating the lacrimal duct, aiming to reduce complications.
- The treatment was effective, with a recurrence in only two older patients, while the rest showed no issues post-surgery, suggesting this method is beneficial but may be less successful in older children with previous infections.
