Abstract | Objective: To present outcomes of neonatal dacryocystoceles treated through endoscopic intranasal cyst marsupialization (EICM) without general anesthesia and nasolacrimal duct (NLD) probing or irrigation. Methods: Records of eleven consecutive infants diagnosed with unilateral or bilateral congenital cysts associated with the nasolacrimal system between January 2016 and February 2019 at our institution were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Age at diagnosis ranged from 0 to 56 days, and 45.5% were male. 54.5% had dacryocystitis before surgical intervention. Patients were initially treated with a combination of massage and topical antibiotics; some received parenteral antibiotics if infected. Nearly all patients (90.9%) had one or more intranasal cysts. Of these patients, two underwent lacrimal probing and EICM in the operating room. One underwent EICM only in the operating room. Another patient initially failed bedside NLD probing and subsequently underwent bedside nasal endoscopy and awake EICM. The final six patients underwent EICM without general anesthesia or NLD probing. No complications were noted. Follow-up ranged from 7 to 906 days. Complete resolution was observed in all ten patients who underwent EICM, regardless of anesthesia. Conclusions: Neonatal dacryocystoceles and/or intranasal cysts are successfully treated at the bedside through nasal endoscopy with simple awake endoscopic intranasal cyst marsupialization. Avoidance of general anesthesia and NLD probing or irrigation would greatly simplify and decrease the cost of dacryocystocele management. |
