ABSTRACT

DCR allows an abstracted lacrimal drainage system to be drained into the nasal fossa. Since the development of endonasal endoscopic surgical technique, the endonasal approach presents it self as an alternative choice to the conventional external approach as in the former skin scar can be avoided. We performed DCR of 50 cases in endonasal endoscopic approach in Mymensingh Medical Collage Hospital. The age range of patient was found between 7 to 35 years, average 21 & male female ratio was 1:1.5 with follow up to 2.10 years with high success rate. Associated nasal disease correction septoplasty was done in 7 cases. In each & every case silicon tube was introduced & removed after 3 to 6 months. The only complication was periorbital injury in 5 cases, punctal tear in 2 cases and granuloma formation in 2 cases. Overall success rate was 86%.
