Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) surgery requires specialized tools designed to treat obstructed nasolacrimal ducts, creating a new drainage path from the tear sac directly into the nose. Key dacryocystorhinostomy instruments include rongeurs for bone removal, dacryocystorhinostomy cannulas for irrigation and anestesia, and surgical scissors for soft tissue dissection.

| Which instruments are needed for external dacryocystorhinostomy? An external DCR set may include skin and soft-tissue instruments, retractors, periosteal elevators, bone punches or rongeurs, lacrimal probes, dilators, scissors, needle holders, and intubation tools. Are Kerrison punches or rongeurs available? RUMEX offers Kerrison punches, rongeurs, and other bone-removal instruments for external DCR. Which probes are used for lacrimal intubation? Lacrimal probes, Bowman probes, and intubation probes are recommended for this. Are instruments suitable for endoscopic DCR? Some instruments may support endoscopic DCR, but endoscopic procedures often require dedicated nasal endoscopic instruments and compatible equipment. What retractors improve lacrimal sac exposure? Fine malleable, Desmarres-type, or self-retaining retractors may be selected based on the approach and anatomy. Are complete DCR sets available? Complete or customizable DCR sets can be ordered for external and selected endoscopic workflows. |
