Abstract: Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is a surgical procedure that restores communication between the tear sac and the adjacent nasal cavity. Our work consists of a comparative study of the results of external dacryocystorhinostomy (EX-DCR) versus endoscopic endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy (EN-DCR), whose rate of therapeutic failure by endoscopic route estimated at 20% against only 7% in the case of external surgery.
