Abstract

Introduction: Since the days of Hippocrates, many modifications have been proposed in Endonasal dacrocystorhinostomy (DCR), with the use of new drugs and implants showing variable results. The objective of this study was to analyze whether the use of silicon tubing or Mitomycin C administration has an added advantage over Conventional endonasal DCR. Materials and Methods: A randomized controlled trial of 150 patients between the ages of 6 and 70 years presenting with epiphora was performed. Patients were randomly divided into three groups: endonasal DCR with Mitomycin C administration, endonasal DCR with silicon stenting, or Conventional endonasal DCR. Patients were followed up on Days 15, 30, 60 and 90 postoperatively for sac syringing to confirm patency. Results: The majority of patients (28. 7%) were in the fourth decade of life, with a female predominance (65. 3%). Dacrocystitis was most commonly seen in the left eye (58. 7%). An intergroup comparison was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test at the end of 3 and 5 months. The results suggest that the success rate was significantly higher in patients with a silicone stent (P=0. 04) as compared with the other two groups, although no significant difference in failure rate was seen between patients on Mitomycin C and Conventional therapy (P=0. 132 at Month 3 and P=0. 481 at Month 5, Mann-Whitney U-test). Conclusion: Our study shows that silicone tube stenting had a better success rate compared with the other two groups, with no significant statistical difference between the use of Mitomycin C and the Conventional technique.
