Dcr success rates
A dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is a type of surgery done to create a new tear drain between your eyes and nose. You may need this surgery if your own tear Dacro Cysto Rhinostomy (DCR) You may need a DCR because a part of the tear drainage The external procedure is approximately 95% successful –. Tsirbas and Wormald are to be congratulated on their landmark paper in lacrimal surgery describing endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) with mucosal flaps, 1 which is also known as powered endonasal DCR. 2, 3 Their results are seemingly impressive, with anatomical success rate of 95% and functional success rate of 89%, closely approaching those of external (transcutaneous) DCR. I have three comments that I hope will help readers who are less familiar with endonasal lacrimal surgery, put Prognosis after DCR is excellent, with success rates up to 90-95% for the external approach. Although there has been a wider range of success rates reported with the endonasal DCR technique, some studies have demonstrated success rates comparable to those obtained with external DCR. The average success rate of endonasal DCR with unciformectomy was 97.8 % and that of endonasal DCR alone was 90.2 %, with statistically significant difference (Student's t-test, p-value < 0.05). There were 14 eyes with post-operative nasolacrimal obstruction, caused by granuloma in five eyes, intranasal synechia in two eyes, membranous obstruction in six eyes, and canalicular stenosis in one eye. External DCR is an effective treatment to relieve the symptoms in primary acquired NLD obstruction. Although numerous percentages of failure rates and relapse of symptoms were reported in different studies, the success rate of this method is reported from 75% to 97% . The current study assessed the success rate of a group of patients who underwent external DCR surgery and, then, the failed cases were re-evaluated by CT scan and revision endoscopic DCR for possible factors involved in the The top reasons for choosing external DCR were higher success rate, physician preference, and more long-term data on outcome. The majority of members use bicanalicular Crawford tubes (76%). Tubes were most commonly removed during post-operative months 2 (34.6%) and 3 (36.4%).

The success rates of endo-DCR are comparable with those of external DCR, and are reported in the literature as being around 90% . There are sparse articles on the reasons for failure of endo-DCRs.
