title: [Use of an embolectomy probe to repair a sectioned lacrimal duct].
abstract: We repaired on injured inferior lacrimal duct by using an embolectomy probe. Its inflatable extremity enables it to be retained in the lacrimal sac, supporting only the injured duct and avoiding retrograde intubation. It can be easily withdrawn when its purpose has been accomplished.
