title: [Macrodacryocystography--a review of 232 cases].
abstract: During the last four years 232 macrodacryocystographies have been performed. The results are compared with the clinical evaluation of these patients. There are two groups of findings, simple stenosis on one side and anatomical abnormalities on the other side. The stenosis is mostly located before the lacrimal sac and most often involves the common canaliculus.--In the second part of the paper examples of alterations of the lacrimal apparatus show the value of the method in evaluating pathological anatomy.
