“…Another cause of failure would be related to the nasal cavity, such as the impossibility of drainage of tears due to the compression of the ostium, such as hypertrophy of the turbinates or adenoids and deviated septum. (3,15) Regarding probing, the success rate was of 76.47% in children under 1 year, different from the literature in that probing achieved cure rates of 95 to 97% of children under 1 year. A higher success rate (86.11%) was obtained for patients between 1 and 3 years, corroborating other studies in which this success rate was from 73% to 88.5%.…”

Fraser syndrome is a systemic condition characterized by cryptophthalmos, syndactyly and abnormal genitalia, which may be associated with urinary tract, ear, nose, larynx and skeletal abnormalities. Cryptophthalmos can be an isolated finding (that has been reported as an autosomal dominant trait) or associated with other congenital anomalies (reported as an autosomal recessive disorder). Child, female, nine month of life, evaluated in the lacrimal setor of Federal University of São Paulo. Child of consanguineous parents. Her physical examination showed total unilateral cryptophthalmos (left side), epiphora (right side) with mucopurulent discharge, depressed nasal bridge, low set ears, atresia of the external auditory canal, prominent labia majora and syndactyly of the fingers and toes. Ocular ultrasonography showed brachycephaly, absence of septu pellucidum prominence of the lateral ventricles, a major bone defect in the skull, the presence of thinning of the mantle tissue of the brain,a reduced anterior-posterior ocular diameter, anterior segment disorganization, absence of the lens and total retinal detachment in the left eye.

Uma segunda alternativa de tratamento é a sondagem lacrimal que pode ser realizada no consultório nos primeiros seis meses de vida, sem anestesia geral ou em crianças acima de seis meses no centro cirúrgico com anestesia geral (15,(17)(18) .…”
