The dacryocystorhinostomy procedure creates a direct passageway between the lacrimal sac and nasal cavity, bypassing any nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Use of a continuous positive airway pressure device after dacryocystorhinostomy can cause nasolacrimal air regurgitation. Here, we report a case of air regurgitation after dacryocystorhinostomy that was successfully treated with placement of a Mini Monoka device, a silicone stent used in nasolacrimal surgery to prevent closure of the passageway, in a patient using a continuous positive airway pressure machine. Following the procedure, the patient was able to resume use of her continuous positive airway pressure device. CITATION: Srivatsan S, Mirza M, Imayama I, Setabutr P, Mahoney NR.
