The authors report what they believe to be the first case of a blepharoplasty procedure complicated by an acute postoperative dacryocystitis that precipitated orbital cellulitis. The patient had a preoperatively compromised nasolacrimal drainage system. Because acute dacryocystitis and resulting orbital cellulitis are potential postoperative complications of a blepharoplasty, blepharoplasty candidates should undergo preoperative evaluation of their nasolacrimal drainage systems.
作者报告了他们认为是首例因急性术后泪囊炎并发眼眶蜂窝织炎的眼睑成形术病例。该患者术前鼻泪引流系统已有损害。由于急性泪囊炎及由此导致的眼眶蜂窝织炎是眼睑成形术潜在的术后并发症，因此拟行眼睑成形术的患者应在术前对其鼻泪引流系统进行评估。
