Nasolacrimal Duct Cyst

Dacryocystocele

The authors report a series of 8 children presenting with a congenital nasolacrimal duct cyst and dacryocoele and highlight the importance of endoscopic nasal examination of newborns presenting with respiratory problems. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigation Jump to search Nasolacrimal duct cyst Specialty Dermatology Nasolacrimal duct cysts are a cutaneous condition that is a developmental defect present at birth. [1] See also [ edit ] Skin dimple List [en.wikipedia.org]

The presentation is common early in infancy, typically 4 days to 10 weeks. Infants present with small round bluish medial canthus mass identified at birth or shortly after /- distal intra-nasal cystic lesion causing nasal obstruction. [radiopaedia.org]

Discussion Presentation of congenital dacryocystocele Congenital dacryocystocele, also known as a dacryocele, often presents shortly after birth. [webeye.ophth.uiowa.edu]

Unilateral cases present with unilateral nasal obstruction and rhinorrhea. Bilateral cases present with severe respiratory distress requiring prompt intervention. [csurgeries.com]

  • Poor Feeding

    Because infants are preferential nose breathers, this displacement can cause significant respiratory distress, manifested as cyanosis, labored breathing, and poor feeding. (4) These symptoms usually diminish with crying, and they can be temporarily relieved [thefreelibrary.com]

  • Mucosal Edema

    Nasal endoscopy at 3 days of age revealed nasal mucosal edema and mild right choanal stenosis. He was treated with nasal oxymetazoline drops, and his respiratory symptoms resolved. [healio.com]

  • Intravenous Administration

    administration of contrast material may demonstrate slight enhancement of the cyst wall that is more pronounced in dacryocystitis. [radiopaedia.org]

  • Feeding Difficulties

    Basic Info The patient is a 4 week old female infant with right sided epiphora and complete right sided nasal obstruction resulting in respiratory and feeding difficulty. [csurgeries.com]

  • Respiratory Distress

    Nasolacrimal duct abnormality should be considered in the differential diagnosis of neonatal respiratory distress and nasal obstruction. Nasal endoscopy is essential in the work-up of all children with nasal obstruction and respiratory distress. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    His respiratory distress increased with feeding, and he was feeding poorly. His arterial blood gas level was normal. [thefreelibrary.com]

    Bilateral cases present with severe respiratory distress requiring prompt intervention. [csurgeries.com]

  • Labored Breathing

    Because infants are preferential nose breathers, this displacement can cause significant respiratory distress, manifested as cyanosis, labored breathing, and poor feeding. (4) These symptoms usually diminish with crying, and they can be temporarily relieved [thefreelibrary.com]

  • Tachypnea

    On admission, the infant had increased work of breathing including tachypnea, nasal flaring and retractions. On the initial chest radiograph, the NG tube was not seen even though it was in the left nare at 10 cm. [nature.com]

  • Respiratory Insufficiency

    Associated intranasal cyst (Fig. 12.7 ) can be small or large (if 50 of the nasal cavity) and, if large, can cause respiratory insufficiency because infants are nasal breathers, which can be life-threatening in cases of bilateral pathology [ 11 ]. [entokey.com]

  • Aspiration

    If the child is anesthetized the saline (colored with fluoroscein typically) can be aspirated with suction. The end of the probe can sometimes be directly observed. [eyewiki.aao.org]

  • Cyanosis

    Because infants are preferential nose breathers, this displacement can cause significant respiratory distress, manifested as cyanosis, labored breathing, and poor feeding. (4) These symptoms usually diminish with crying, and they can be temporarily relieved [thefreelibrary.com]

  • Anisocoria

    No anisocoria and no relative afferent pupillary defect Intraocular pressure: Physiologic by palpation Alignment : Ortho by Hirschberg Anterior segment exam : Within normal limits Dilated funduscopic exam : Deferred until examination under anesthesia [webeye.ophth.uiowa.edu]

  • Impulsivity

    Some hyperactive-impulsive or inattentive symptoms that caused impairment were present before age 7 years C. Some impairment from the symptoms is present in two or more settings (eg, at school (or work) and at home) D. [books.google.com]

Neoplasm [ edit ] Neoplasm should be considered in any patient presenting with NLD obstruction.In patients with an atypical presentation, including younger age and male gender, further workup is appropriate. [en.wikipedia.org]

  • Periostal Elevation

    The inferior turbinate was infractured using a Freer periosteal elevator if additional space was required. Following marsu piali zation of the cyst, the Bowman probe was visualized coming through the distal valve of Hasner (Fig 4C). [healio.com]

Conclusions Microdebrider assisted endoscopic marsupialisation is a safe and effective treatment for removal of excess tissue in the treatment for congenital intranasal NLD cyst/inferior mucocoele whilst also obviating the need for silastic intubation [link.springer.com]

Treatment and prognosis Treatment of dacryocystoceles is graded and ranges from manual pressure to probing with irrigation to endoscopic resection and marsupialization in severe cases. [radiopaedia.org]

Endoscopic marsupialization followed by lacrimal duct irrigation is effective in the treatment of congenital nasolacrimal duct cyst and results in complete resolution of symptoms. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Sepsis is a life threatening complication if the infection goes without treatment. [webeye.ophth.uiowa.edu]

(Outcomes/Resolutions) Overall, the prognosis of Blocked Tear Duct is very good with appropriate therapy. In infants, usually, the blocked duct gets better by its own. [dovemed.com]

Pathophysiology/Statistics Although quite common, the frequency of nasolacrimal drainage obstruction is unknown. It has no racial predilection. PANDO is more commonly seen in middle-aged and elderly females. [eyeplastics.com]

The procedure with the microdebrider was carefully performed to prevent injury to the surrounding tissue. Nasal packing to prevent bleeding was not necessary. [jstage.jst.go.jp]

Role of topical antibiotics: Topical antibiotics can be used to prevent secondary conjunctivitis. Warm compresses, lacrimal massage, probing of lacrimal duct can be performed to facilitate drainage of tears. [sites.google.com]

These were treated by endoscopic incision of the cyst with drainage of pus and excision of excess mucosal tissue using a powered microdebrider to effect marsupialisation and prevent re healing of the floppy redundant flaps of the incised cyst. [link.springer.com]

For the same reason when applying some eye drops it is often advised to close the nasolacrimal duct by pressing it with a finger to prevent the medicine from escaping the eye and having unwanted side effects elsewhere in the body. [en.wikipedia.org]
