Abstract

Variations of the nasolacrimal duct are optimally evaluated by dacryocystography, CT, MR imaging and nuclear scintigraphy.ln this study morphometric measurements of the lacrimal drainage system were performed with thin- section axial computed tomography (CT) examinations in 30 patients with no signs of pathology related to the lacrimal drainage system. We also tried to demonstrade a correlation between nasolacrimal variations of duct and osteomeatal complex disase, opacification of paranasal sinuses, concha bullosa and nasal septal deviations.

Özet

Nazolakrimal kanal varyasyonlarının bilinmesi nazal kaviteye yönelik girişimlerde uygulanacak yaklaşımın belirlenmesinde önemli bir yer tutar. Mevcut görüntüleme yöntemlerinden Bilgisayarlı Tomografi (BT) ile nazolakrimal kanal varyasyonları ayrıntılı olarak gösterilebilmektedir. Bu amaçla primer olarak nazal sorunu bulunmayan 30 hastada BT ile nazolakrimal kanal trasesi değerlendirildi. Bulgularımız ile nazal konkanın durumu, nazal septum ve komşu sinüslerdeki normal-patolojik değişiklikler arasındaki ilişkiler gösterilmeye çalışıldı. Sonuç olarak bilgisayarlı tomografinin nazolakrimal kanal trasesinin görüntülenmesinde etkin bir yöntem olduğu, kanal varyasyonları ile nazal kaviteyi ilgilendiren olası patolojilerin bir arada gösterilmesinde yararlı olduğu saptandı
