| Abstract | PURPOSE: To describe the rate of surgical intervention to the intranasal structures for making a sufficient bony ostium in endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy. METHODS: Video records of 52 Korean patients (66 eyes) who underwent endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy between January 2010 and December 2010 for primary nasolacrimal duct obstruction were reviewed. To locate the internal common punctum in the lateral nasal wall, a transcanalicular illumination device consisting of disposable vitrectomy light pipe was introduced horizontally through the canaliculus. The relative position of the internal common punctum to the operculum of the middle turbinate was divided into 4 types and analyzed according to the intranasal surgical procedures necessary. RESULTS: Internal common punctum was located posterior-superior to the operculum of the middle turbinate in 37 cases (56%), anterior-superior in 16 cases (24%), posterior-inferior in 11 cases (17%) and anterior-inferior in 2 cases (3%). To expose the bony ostium, partial removal of the operculum of the middle turbinate was required in 63 cases (95%), anterior middle turbinectomy in 43 cases (65%), uncinectomy in 62 cases (94%) and opening of the agger nasi cell in 45 cases (68%). CONCLUSIONS: In a majority of patients, partial removal of the middle turbinate, uncinate process and agger nasi cell were necessary to create a sufficient bony ostium. The transcanalicular illumination device is useful to locate the lacrimal sac and can be helpful in understanding the intranasal structures which need to be removed during surgery. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
