AbstractDO.12.03 Canaliculus stenoses New procedures Emmerich K.-H.1, Meyer-Rüsenberg H.-W.2
1Augenklinik Klinikum Darmstadt; 2Augenklinik, St. Josefs-Hospital Hagen With the development of miniaturisation of instruments endoscopic techniques got more and more important in ophthalmology. In this abstract endonasal operation techniques and endocnanalicular endoscopic techniques will be presented. The significance of an endoscopic diagnostics will be shown.
With the possibilities of endocanalicular endoscopy of the lacrimal duct and the options in surgery which result from that even more options opened up. These minimised the surgical effort and the postoperative rehabilitation. Judging the actual situation of the mucosa endoscopically regarding the position and degree of the stenoses there are different possibilities in rechanneling. In cases of stenoses of the canaliculus theres the possibility of using the Erbium-YAG-Lasercaryoplasty. The microsurgical procedures are largely replaced by this, as the success rate of the Laser-Canaliculusplasty is, with 80%, clearly higher in comparison to conventional methods.
