“…In endoscopic endonasal surgery, it is advantageous to measure the tube length precisely. Endoscopy provides a good intranasal view of the tip of the tube in the nasal cavity and enables the arrangement of tissue around the tube easily [4]. The prosthesis should extend 2 mm beyond the lateral nasal wall, but it should not touch the nasal septum [9, 10].…”

“…The conventional method, which has been performed as an open or external procedure by way of medial canthal incision, has several weak points: scar formation after surgery, an increased risk of adjacent tissue injury during operation, a larger amount of blood loss, a longer recovery period, and difficulty in measuring tube length precisely caused by a poor view of the nasal cavity [3, 4]. …”

“…Além desta, outras causas de obstrução alta seriam: trauma dos canalículos, infecções, doenças muco-sinequiantes, iatrogênicas (radioterapia, sondagens, medicamentosas) e idiopáticas (5) . A necessidade de se colocar o tubo de Lester-Jones em indivíduos submetidos a dacriocistorrinostomia ocorre por insucesso do procedimento, causada por fibrose excessiva, com oclusão da comunicação entre o saco lacrimal e a cavidade nasal.…”

“…Cita-se como uma vantagem em relação à técnica tradicional o fato de não se necessitar do acesso externo, eliminando a cicatriz do dorso nasal (5) . Porém, a nosso ver, a vantagem principal de se utilizar a endoscopia está na perfeita visibilização da extremidade distal do tubo e a colocação do mesmo na posição mais adequada, já que as principais complicações decorrentes do procedimento se relacionam com a posição inadequada e extrusão do tubo (10) .…”
