Silicone tubes are widely used in lacrimal system surgery. A common complication associated with the use of silicone tubes is lateral migration or displacement of the tubes. In some cases, the distal part of the silicone tube passes through the rhinostomy area, where it may become embedded in the lacrimal sac. The silicone tubes could not be seen in the nose endoscopically. The distal part of the silicon tube could not be seen in the rhinostomy area, so it was removed using a new method.
硅胶管在泪道系统手术中广泛应用。使用硅胶管常见的并发症是管子向外侧移位或脱出。在某些情况下，硅胶管的远端穿过鼻造口区域，可能会嵌入泪囊。在内镜下在鼻腔内看不到硅胶管。在鼻造口区域看不到硅胶管的远端，因此采用一种新方法将其取出。
