“…A burn of the medial canthal area can be associated with damage of the canaliculus and punctum with severe epiphora, and most cases need complex oculoplasty, such as CDCR. However, the success rate is not high because of continuing adhesion and cicatrization [15]. In this case, conjunctival synechia developed 1 week after the primary operation, and was treated with synechiolysis and a conjunctival autograft.…”

“…Patients were excluded if they had epiphora present from birth (congenital abnormality of NLS),5 8watering secondary to a herpetic canaliculitis, dacryocystitis, and lacrimal sac mucocele. 9 10 Patients with previous trauma,9 surgical intervention, intranasal disease, neoplasm of the lacrimal sac,10 11 corneal ulcer or foreign body, and any overproduction of tears (that is, any condition that causes reflex stimulation of the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal area) were excluded. Patients with abnormal punctal apposition, ectropion, and those with minimal symptoms (watering outdoors, only in cold wind that may occur in individuals with normal lacrimal excretory system) were also excluded.…”

“…So konnte bei 7 Patienten durch Tränenpunktdilatation (1 ×) bzw. durch Tränenpunkt-oder Kanalikuloplastik mit nachfolgender endokanalikulärer Schienung (6 ×) eine funktionelle Heilung erzielt werden [13]. In der Regel erlangt jedoch die Schädigung der ableitenden Tränenwege erst in der Spätphase der Entzündungsreaktion mit der Rekonstruktion und Vernarbung des Gewebes sowie störender Epiphora eine klinische Relevanz.…”
