No control group was used for this study.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n Through a review of patient's medical files, the surgical technique used for cases of marsupialization under topical anesthesia in our medical center was documented and described.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n The primary outcome was the success rate of marsupialization procedures under topical anesthesia, defined as nonrecurrence. Secondary outcomes comprised periprocedural and postprocedure complications. The age of the patients at diagnosis ranged from 7.1 to 16.4 days. Among the 23 patients, 19 (83%) had previously failed conservative treatment before undergoing surgical intervention. Two patients (9%) experienced recurrent dacryocystocele. There were no perioperative or postoperative complications observed. Following the procedure, the most prevalent persistent symptom was nasal congestion, observed in 4 patients (17%). The mean time to treatment was 4.4 days and the overall hospital duration post\u2010procedure was 0.4 days.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n This study underscores the efficacy and safety of clinic\u2010based endoscopic intranasal marsupialization for treating dacryocystocele. This approach expedites surgical care, eliminates the requirement for general anesthesia and allows a reduced hospital stay, making it a favorable treatment option in clinical practice.<\/jats:p>\n
