Use of Conjunctiva and Labial Mucosa for Dacryocystoplasty / 昆明医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

A new menthod for treating old laceration of Lacrimal canaliculus with dacryocystoplasty using conjunctiva or labial mucosa was recommended by the authors. Out of 14 cases,9 cases were operated on with conjunctiva.7 cases were markedly effec- tive,1 cases improved and 1 cases failed.5 cases were operated on with labial mucosa.4 cases were markdly effective and 1 cases improved. The advantages of these two kinds of transplants have been compared.Labial mucosa is better than conjunctiva,and dacryocystoplasty with labial mucosa is more handy and appli- cable.
