title: [Our experience with the complex treatment of phlegmon of the lacrimal sac].
abstract: Eighty-nine patients with lacrimal sac phlegmons, 76 women and 13 men, aged 16 to 78, were administered multiple-modality treatment, consisting in Group 1 (43 patients) of traditional methods, such as UHF therapy, antibiotics, sulfonamides, symptomatic therapy, dacryocystorhinostomy after complete cessation of inflammation, and in group 2 (46 patients) including sessions of intermittent magnetic field (IMF) exposure, antibiotics, and early dacryocystorhinostomy. Sparing technique was used in all operations, carried out under local anesthesia with 2% procaine or trimecaine. IMF exposure was found to be an effective therapeutic means characterized by antiinflammatory, resolving, and analgesic effects. IMF sessions and early dacryocystorhinostomy enhance cessation of inflammation and improve the treatment efficacy: remote results of surgery were excellent in 80% of Group 1 patients and in 90.9% of Group 2 patients; As a results of IMF exposure, the terms of medical and social rehabilitation of patients with the lacrimal sac phlegmons were reduced twofold.
