A Brief History of Lacrimal Bypass Techniques
SEMINARS IN OPHTHALMOLOGY(2024)
摘要
PurposeLacrimal bypass is the creation of a fistula connecting the conjunctiva with the lacrimal sac or nasal cavity. Bypass is indicated in canalicular obstruction or agenesis; sac absence, destruction or prior excision; lacrimal pump failure; or dacryocystorhinostomy failure. We aim to review the various techniques that have been developed over the last century for lacrimal bypass.MethodsWe conducted a comprehensive literature review of techniques which have focused on creating a conduit extending from the conjunctiva or canaliculi to the lacrimal sac, or extending that bypass to the nasal cavity bypass.ResultsThe main techniques reviewed include canaliculodacryocystorhinostomy, conjunctivodacryocystostomy, conjunctivorhinostomy, conjunctivodacryocystorhinostomy, and conjunctivoductivodacryocystorhinostomy.ConclusionLacrimal bypass surgery has evolved due to innovation in microsurgical techniques, instruments and materials. Conjunctivodacryocystorhinostomy with Jones tube insertion is the predominant bypass technique, reflecting a culmination of historical developments. Understanding the variety of lacrimal bypass techniques is important for exploring alternative options when necessary.
