Abstract

Introduction: Acute dacryocystitis is an acute infection and the lacrimal sac secondary to pathogenic microorganism growth within the stagnant fluid in the lacrimal sac secondary to nasolacrimal duct obstruction.

Methods: A literature review was conducted on the PubMed database using the following search terms "dacryocystic retention" and "dacryocystitis" or "dacryolith" or "lacrimal duct" or "pseudo-dacryocystitis".

Results: The literature review suggests that dacryocystitis in a patent nasolacrimal drainage system can stem from diverse causes including the mechanical impaction by dacryoliths, viral infections and anatomical variations. It is believed that these causes lead to transient obstruction to the nasolacrimal excretory system predisposing to secondary infections. Idiopathic temporary dacryocystic retention is also highlighted in this review.

Conclusions: This review broadens the understanding of dacryocystic retention and highlights the need for careful diagnosis and tailored treatment plans, particularly in cases deviating from the traditional etiological pathways.

专利鼻泪管引流系统中的泪囊炎：文献综述。

导言：急性泪囊炎是由于鼻泪管阻塞引起的泪囊积液中病原微生物生长而导致的泪囊急性感染：在PubMed数据库中使用以下检索词进行了文献综述："泪囊潴留 "和 "泪囊炎 "或 "泪石 "或 "泪道 "或 "假性泪囊炎"：文献综述表明，在通畅的鼻泪管引流系统中发生泪囊炎的原因多种多样，包括泪石的机械性嵌塞、病毒感染和解剖变异。一般认为，这些原因会导致鼻泪管排泄系统的短暂性阻塞，容易引发继发性感染。本综述还重点介绍了特发性暂时性泪囊潴留：本综述拓宽了人们对泪囊潴留的认识，强调了仔细诊断和定制治疗方案的必要性，尤其是对于偏离传统病因途径的病例。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
