The aim of this study was to describe a simple technique to insert a venous catheter as a stent for the treatment of acquired punctal and canalicular stenosis.
We performed this technique using a central venous catheter as a stent for the treatment of acquired punctal and canalicular stenosis.
The results show the easy availability of the material used for the intervention, its easy execution, and the low costs of materials. The goal of this technique is to have a lacrimal dot dilated and canalicular duct easy to irrigate.
The use of a venous catheter as a stent for treatment of acquired punctal and canalicular stenosis seems to be simple, safe, repeatable, and noninvasive.
本研究的目的是描述一种简单技术,即插入静脉导管作为支架来治疗后天性泪点和泪小管狭窄。
我们采用中心静脉导管作为支架来治疗后天性泪点和泪小管狭窄,实施了该技术。
结果显示,用于该干预措施的材料易于获取,操作简便,且材料成本低。该技术的目标是使泪点扩张,泪小管易于冲洗。
使用静脉导管作为支架治疗后天性泪点和泪小管狭窄似乎简单、安全、可重复且无创。
