Abstract

Purpose: To determine the frequency of otolaryngological disorders in patients with congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) as compared to controls.Methods: In this case-control study, 80 children with CNLDO (cases) and 80 children without CNLDO (controls) were examined for ophthalmological and otolaryngological disorders. Data analysis was performed using Pearson Chi-square and Fisher exact tests for frequency values and t-test for mean values.Results: Mean age was 22.7±14.3 (range 5-72) months in the case group and 23.4±13.7 (range 9-72) months in controls (P=0.76). CNLDO was bilateral in 7 (8.75%), left-sided in 23 (28.75%) and right-sided in 50 (62.5%) cases .There were no significant differences between cases and controls in nasal, oral and external ear examinations, however otitis media with effusion (OME) was found in 26.3% of cases vs 10% in controls (P=0.01). Odds ratio for OME in the CNLDO group was 3.2 (95% confidence interval, 1.32-7.75). Tympanometry was type A in 71.3%, type Bin 22.5%, type C in 5% and unrecordable in 1.3% of cases compared to type A in 88.8% and type B in 11.2% of controls (P=0.01).Conclusion: The incidence of asymptomatic OME in patients with CNLDO is higher than controls therefore, children with CNLDO may need screening for OME for timely diagnosis and treatment.
