Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Success rate and complications of monocanalicular and bicanalicular intubation in children

    35 consecutive cases of bicanalicular intubations (group I) followed by 35 consecutive cases of monocanalicular intubations (group II). Silicone tubes were removed 3 to 4 months after the surgery. The children were followed up for 6 months.

    6 months

Study Arms (2)

Monocanalicular intubation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Monocanalicular intubations (MCI; n=35 eyes) through the inferior canaliculus intubations performed under general anaeshesia in children between 10 and 36 months of age suffering from congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO).

Device: Canalicular intubation

Bicanalicular intubation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Bicanalicular intubation (BCI; n=35 eyes) performed under general anaeshesia in children between 10 and 36 months of age suffering from congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO).

Device: Canalicular intubation

Interventions

Intubation through the inferior canaliculus performed under general anaeshesia. The tubes were removed 3-4 months after the tube placement.

Also known as: silicone tube
