[Idiopathic epiphoras in adults treated with lacrymal-nasal stents].
Fluoroscopic nonsurgical placement of an expandable polyurethane stent is less invasive than surgery for the treatment of epiphora due to obstruction of the nasolacrimal duct. It needs to be performed with the collaboration of an ophthalmologist, using a high resolution digital subtraction imaging unit.
