Internal splinting with silicone tubing is now a well-established principle of lacrimal canaliculus repair, but fixation of the tubing ends is often unsatisfactory. The use of an internal suture allows this tubing to be converted into a small, continuous loop that is inconspicuous, cannot be inadvertently pulled out, and can remain in position indefinitely.
使用硅胶管进行内支撑现已成为泪小管修复的一项成熟原则，但硅胶管两端的固定往往不尽人意。使用内缝线可使硅胶管变成一个不显眼的小连续环，不会被意外拉出，且可永久留在原位。
