Chronische Dakryozystitis im Kindesalter

Abstract: Congenital dacryostenoses are frequent problems in pediatric ophthalmology. For surgical intervention various transcanalicular techniques by lining the tear ducts with silicone tubes are available. A 5-year-old child was presented with severe chronic dacryocystitis of both eyes after several interventions for lacrimal duct surgery with silicone intubation had been carried out. Using endoscopy the fragments of intrasaccal silicone tubes could be localized and the foreign bodies could be removed by endoscopic tr… Show more

“…In patients with a history of reconstructive surgery of the medial orbital wall, retained postauricular cartilage [ 4 ] and a silastic sheet [ 5 ] have been detected in the lacrimal sac. In patients with a history of intubation with silicone stents or DCR, pieces of silicone tubing [ 6 ], a Griffiths' collar button stent used to maintain the nasal ostium [ 7 ], and retained gauze [ 8 ] have been identified in the lacrimal system. Other iatrogenic foreign bodies that have been reported include a piece of a metallic punctal dilator [ 9 ], and more common than any of the above, retained intracanalicular plugs [ 10 ].…”

“…In Dakryolithen können verschiedene Zellen nachgewiesen werden (Epithelzellen, T- und B-Lymphozyten, Granulozyten sowie Makrophagen und Plasmazellen) 20 , 45 , 48 . Bisweilen sind reichhaltig vorhandene neutrophile Granulozyten vorzufinden 38 , 43 . Kubo et al zeigen, dass mit zunehmendem Patientenalter in über 50% eine zusätzliche Besiedlung durch Mikroorganismen auftritt (vor allem Aspergillus und Aktinomyzeten) 34 .…”
