SUMMARY
Aim. To study the efficacy of transcanalicular diode laser-assisted DCR while treating recurrent dacryocystitis.
Materials and methods. 8 female patients with recurrent dacryocystitis underwent a second surgery by the
method of a transcanalicular diode laser-assisted dacryocystorhinostomy.
All patients in the field of dacryostomy received a 5-minute application of mitomycin solution of 0.4 mg/
mL and a silicone stent fixed. Full restoration of patency was observed in 7 patients, 1 patient preserved passive
patency after the stent was removed, with the continuing epiphora.
Conclusions
Simple and fast technique of transcanalicular diode laser-assisted DCR, no skin incisions, minimal
bleeding, minor trauma, short term rehabilitation allow using this method as an alternative to external DCR while
treating recurrent dacryocystitis.
