The Fibrin Glue Application Enhances Surgical Success Rate in Endonasal Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy With Lacrimal Sac Preservation

Abstract: The purpose of this study to compare lacrimal sac flap preserving techniques with or without fibrin glue in patients undergoing endoscopic endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy. A retrospective study included 132 patients who underwent unilateral endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy between February 2011 and March 2016. Patients were divided into 2 groups: the nonfibrin glue group (n = 66) and fibrin glue anastomosis group (n = 66). Surgical success was defined as the patients’ subjective report of relief of epiphora and… Show more

“…In this study, mitomycin-C was applied to 22% patients whereas in study conducted by Priya et al mitomycin was applied in 51% cases to see the effect of intraoperative topical application of mitomycin-C during EEDCR surgical procedure. 11 Kulkarni et al conducted a study to compare the endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy with and without adjunctive topical use of mitomycin C. 8 He found that synechiae formation was seen in 16% and granulation formation was seen in 6% which is higher than our study. It was found that there is no significant relationship between mitomycin applied and rate of surgical success (Table 6).…”

“…[ 20 21 ] Ceylan SM et al . [ 22 ] used fibrin glue for anastomosing the lacrimal sac and nasal mucosal flaps during endoscopic endonasal DCR and noted a significantly higher success rate in the fibrin glue group compared to the cases where glue was not utilized (95.5% vs. 84.8%). The authors concluded that creation of an anastomosis between the lacrimal sac flaps and the nasal mucosa using fibrin glue improves the outcome of endoscopic endonasal DCR.…”

“…Scientists from the Ahmedabad center tested the viability of human dental pulp stem cells (HDPS) in 2D and 3D fibrin scaffolds of various concentrations. They found that 25% fibrin glue prolongs HDPS viability which may be of great importance for regenerative endodontics [9,[36][37][38][39][40].…”
