Tear trough implantation may be associated with a number of well-reported complications. To our knowledge, penetration of the lacrimal sac has never been reported as a complication of malar or tear trough implants. We report a case of lacrimal sac penetration discovered at the time of endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy surgery in a patient who developed epiphora soon after the tear trough implant was placed.
泪沟植入术可能会伴有许多已被充分报道的并发症。据我们所知,泪囊穿透从未被报道为颧骨或泪沟植入物的并发症。我们报告一例在泪沟植入物置入后不久出现溢泪症状的患者,在内窥镜下泪囊鼻腔造口术手术时发现泪囊穿透的病例。
