“…They found no significant statistical differences between the success rate in the two groups. Furthermore, we could avoid previous or concomitant septoplasty in some cases like mild and moderate SD because the success rate was similar to non septal deviation group [11].…”

The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is any correlation between dacryocystitis with deviated nasal septum and sinusitis. A retrospective study of 50 patients who were diagnosed with dacryocystitis were included in the study. The patients included were operated between July 2018 and February 2017. All patients were assessed and operated by a single surgeon. We found in the study that 38 patients had deviated nasal septum to the diseased side and were operated for better achievement of surgical field and also for relieving the symptom of nasal obstruction in those patients. It was also found that those who were operated for deviated nasal septum were found to have better success rate post-operatively. The association between dacryocystitis and deviated nasal septum was found to be statistically significant (0.000236). However, there no such significant association found between that of sinusitis and dacryocystitis.

“…Patients with endonasal variations should be well evaluated and selected to increase surgical success with laser DCR. In a study in which Raposo et al [ 13 ] evaluated the effect of septum deviation on laser DCR prognosis, the researchers found that mild and moderate septal deviation did not affect surgical success. In another study in which the prognostic effect of age in patient selection was evaluated, it was found that 6.76 times more successful surgical outcomes were obtained with laser DCR in patients aged 60 years and above compared to patients aged 20–30 years [ 14 ].…”

IntroductionTranscanalicular laser DCR (TL-DCR) approaches have been developed for the formation of a fistula between the nasal cavity and the lacrimal sac to ensure the continuity of the lacrimal drainage system over the years. However, the success rate of TL-DCR has varied widely.AimTo evaluate and compare the success rates of conventional transcanalicular multidiode laser dacryocystorhinostomy and modified transcanalicular multidiode laser dacryocystorhinostomy.Material and methodsNinety-one eyes of 91 adult patients admitted with epiphora and diagnosed with chronic dacryocystitis were included in the study. The participants were divided into two groups. Group 1 consisted of 55 patients who were treated with conventional transcanalicular laser dacryocystorhinostomy. Group 2 consisted of 36 patients to whom the same surgical procedure was applied with the difference of nasal mucosa excision prior to laser osteotomy. The groups’ intraoperative surgical ostium size, perioperative and postoperative complications, operative times and success rates were compared.ResultsThe mean follow-up periods for each group were 8.88 ±2.99 months and 10.28 ±4.47 months, respectively (p = 0.077). Intraoperative mean surgical ostium sizes were 31.85 ±14.98 mm2 and 42.25 ±18.09 mm2, respectively (p = 0.004). The mean operation time in group 1 was significantly shorter compared to group 2 (18.55 ±4.05 min and 24.44 ±3.18 min, respectively, p = 0.0001). The overall success rate was 65.45% in group 1 and 75.00% in group 2 (p = 0.335).ConclusionsAlthough the surgical ostium area was significantly greater in group 2, there was no significant difference in surgical success and patient satisfaction rates between the two groups.

“…while the chronic form is associated with a mass under the medial canthal tendon and chronic conjunctivitis with epiphora. polymicrobial dacryocytitis were common and concurrently isolated from bacterial, fungal, and viral origin [3,4]. In general gram-positive bacteria were most common which were followed by gram-negative bacteria of both anaerobic and aerobic origin.…”

The study was conducted from May -November 2019 among 114 dacryocystitis patients attending to ophthalmology department of Al-Yarmuk central hospital in Baghdad city. From of 114 patients with dacryocystitis, 90 (79%) patients had bacterial dacryocystitis, 24 (21%) with fungal dacryocystitis. According to the results 83(73%) recorded with chronic dacryocystitis and 31(27%) with acute dacryocystitis. The high percentage was bacterial dacryocystitis (32%), fungal dacryocystitis (38%) were at age of 74±0.3 y and the low percentage of bacterial was (11%) at 63±0.5 y and with fungal dacryocystitis (8%) at age of 42±0.3y. Patients with bacterial dacryocystitis had diabetes mellitus (56 %),arthritis and hypertension (28%,16 %) while the DM with fungal dacryocystitis (46%), arthritis, hypertension (38 %,16 %), S.aureus 23(26%), S.epidermidis 18 (20%),Streptococcus spp. 14 (16%), Pseudomonas spp. 11 (12%), E. coli 10 (11%), Enterobacter spp 9 (10%) finally Proteus spp. 5 (6%), while Aspergillus flavus represented 9 (37%) as causing fungal dacryocystitis, Aspergillus fumigates 7 (29%), Aspergillus niger 4 (17%)and Candida spp 4 (17%) . The antibiotic susceptibility tests revealed that S. aureus isolates were sensitive to Chloramphenicol (83%),. S.epidermidis isolates showed sensitivity to Gentamycin and Tetracycline (88%), Streptococcus spp showed the susceptibility to Erythromycin (93%), Ciprofloxacin (86%) respectively,Pseudomonas spp isolates considered highly sensitive to Tetracycline and Chloramphenicol (91%), E.coli isolates were also susceptible to Chloramphenicol (90%), Enterobacter spp were sensetive to Tetracycline and Gentamicin (78%),Proteus spp isolates seems sensitive to Chloramphenicol and Tetracycline (100%), Aspergillus spp. and Candida spp. isolates remain sensitive to Itraconazole, Voriconazole .
