Abstract

Purpose: To determine the safety and efficacy of MITOMYCIN-C injection into the lacrimal duct for treatment of partial NASOLACRIMAL DUCT OBSTRUCTION in adults. Method: This is a before-after clinical trial performed on 20 patients with partial primary acquired NASOLACRIMAL DUCT OBSTRUCTION. We injected 1.5 ml of MITOMYCIN-C 0.2 mg/ml into the lacrimal duct and repeated it with concentration of 0.3 mg/ml for inadequate response.Results: After 9 months of follow up, epiphora decreased in 80% of the patients, while the amount of obstruction decreased to 50% In patients with low grade anatomical obstruction the improvement was 100% and with increasing degrees of obstruction, the success rate of this intervention decreased. Ophthalmic complications did not occur and nasal mucosal pallor was observed only in one patient. Conclusion: Intraductal mitomycin injection can reduce epiphora in adults with partial primary acquired NASOLACRIMAL DUCT OBSTRUCTION and is a safe method.
