RESUMO
We will refer to lacrimal system pathologies involving the outflow pathways, as well as to the recent advances in the management of canalicular and lacrimonasal duct anomalies, including modifications to dacrycystorhinostomy technique, treatment for congenital obstructions, and lacrimal intubations. Special emphasis will be placed on the usefulness of nasal and canalicular endoscopy for the examination and treatment of congenital obstructions and endonasal pathologies, as an aid for intubations and lacrimal surgery, as well as on reasons for failed procedures.
