RESUMEN
La epífora producida por obstrucción del conductor nasolagrimal ha sido tratada tradicionalmente con una dacriocistorrinostomía externa (DCR). La DCR endonasal puede ofrecer asimismo una tasa elevada de permeabilidad prolongada del conducto sin requerir una incisión nasal externa y sin interrupción del ligamento de canto medial y el efecto posterior que esto puede tener sobre el mecanismo de bomba lagrimal. Esta revisión describe la técnica de la DCR endonasal de alta potencia y resume los resultados logrados con esta técnica.
ABSTRACT
Epiphora caused by obstruction of the nasolacrimal ducthas traditionally been treated with an external dacrocystorhinostomy (DCR). Endonasal DCR can offersimilarly high rate of long term duct patency without requiring an external nasal incision and without the disruption of the medial canthal ligament and subsequent effect that this may have on the lacrimal pump mechanism. This review describes the technique of powered endonasal DCR and summarises the results achieved with this technique.
