Abstract

Main objective of the study is to review the literature about the chemical composition and the formation of dacryoliths. Dacryoliths are calculi of the lacrimal system observed incidentally during dacryocystorhinostomy. Theories about the formation of dacryoliths mainly suppose dacryoliths are simply a secondary phenomenon, resulting from a lacrimal pathway obstruction and the accumulation of debris. Inflammation caused by fungi, most commonly candida albicans, an eyelash within the sac or adrenalin use are also considered to be potential causes. It was also reported that the unstable concentrations of electrolytes rather than the supersaturation of some electrolytes are related to the pathogenesis of dacryoliths. Chemical analysis of the dacryoliths in studies had revealed calcium, magnesium, potassium, sulfur and some phosphorus. Atomic absorption spectrophotometric investigations demonstrated organic proteins and, to a much lesser extent, of inorganic material.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı lakrimal kese dakriyolitlerinin kimyasal bileşimi ve oluşumları ile ilgili literatürün taranmasıdır. Dakriyolitler dakriyosistorinostomi sırasında tesadüfen gözlenen lakrimal sistem taşlarıdır. Dakriyolitlerin oluşumu ile ilgili teoriler temel olarak dakriyolitlerin ikincil oluşumlar olduğunu, lakrimal sistem tıkanıklığı ve debris birikimi sonucunda oluştuğunu varsayarlar. Başta candida albicans olmak üzere mantarlara bağlı enflamasyon, kese içindeki bir kirpik ya da adrenalin kullanımı olası nedenler olarak düşünülmektedir. Ayrıca elektrolitlerin doygunluk üzeri konsantrasyonlarından çok dengesiz konsantrasyonlarda bulunmalarının dakriyolitlerin patogenezi ile ilişkili olduğu bildirilmiştir. Dakriyolitlerin kimyasal analizlerinde kalsium, magnezyum, potasyum, sulfur ve fosfor bulunmuştur. Ayrıca Atomik Absorbsiyon Spektrofotometrik çalışmalar dakriyolit yapısında organik proteinler ve çok az oranda inorganik maddeler göstermiştir
