AIM:To approach the clinical efficacy of dacryocystorhinostomy combined with intubation of lacrimal ducts for chronic dacryocystitis combined with obstruction of lacrimal ducts.·METHODS:Totally 54 patients 54 eyes with chronic dacryocystitis and obstruction of lacrimal ducts underwent epidural anesthesia catheter intubation (intubation area:inferior lacrimal point,inferior lacrimal ducts,anastomotic stoma and middle nasal meatus). ·RESULTS:All patients underwent the extubation of lacrimal and catheters irrigation,the patency rate was 100%. Total effective rate was 96% at 1 year after operation. ·CONCLUSION:Dacryocystorhinostomy combined with intubation of lacrimal ducts is a effective method for chronic dacryocystitis combined with obstruction of lacrimal ducts,which has simple operative procedure,high success rate,and easy to prehension and generalization.
