    Summary

    Partial canaliculus transplantation effectively reconstructs damaged nasal lower lid regions, even extending to the lacrimal sac. This surgical method proved successful in maintaining patency over 17-20 months.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Tumor-induced damage to the nasal lower lid region necessitates canaliculus substitution.
    • Partial canaliculus transplantation is an established reconstructive technique.

    Observation:

    • Two cases explored extending the indication for partial canaliculus transplantation.
    • The method was applied to partial canaliculus substitution adjacent to the lacrimal sac.
    • Combination with sliding plasty, similar to complete lid transplantation, was investigated.

    Findings:

    • Partial canaliculus transplantation is a suitable method for tumor-damaged nasal lower lid regions.
    • The surgical indication can be extended to include parts of the canaliculus near the lacrimal sac.
    • The method can be combined with sliding plasty for comprehensive reconstruction.
    • Follow-up over 17-20 months demonstrated sustained patency of the partial canaliculus transplants.

    Implications:

    • This technique offers a viable solution for complex lacrimal drainage reconstruction.
    • Extending the application broadens the reconstructive options for oculoplastic surgeons.
    • Successful long-term patency suggests durability and efficacy of the procedure.
