The stent was removed at the one\u2010week recheck due to a stent\u2010related corneal ulcer, 1\u2009week earlier than planned.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n A focal central superficial corneal ulcer attributed to mechanical contact with the catheter stent was identified at the one\u2010week recheck and necessitated early stent removal; the ulcer resolved with topical antibiotic therapy. At the three\u2010week recheck, mild nictitating membrane (NM) elevation and incomplete ductal patency were noted. By the six\u2010week recheck, NM protrusion and conjunctival hyperemia had resolved and corticosteroid therapy was discontinued. No cyst recurrence was observed over 4\u2009months, and the created ductal tract remained patent.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n This technique achieved resolution of recurrent LCNM and maintained ductal patency over 4\u2009months. Stent\u2010related corneal contact necessitated early stent removal. The suture\u2010free nature suggests this technique may be performed without dedicated surgical microscopy, potentially broadening its applicability in general practice.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/vop.70221","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,29]],"date-time":"2026-06-29T13:39:09Z","timestamp":1782740349000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Stent\u2010Assisted Surgical Creation of a Ductal Drainage Tract in the Third Eyelid Gland for Treatment of Postoperative Lacrimal Cyst of the Nictitating Membrane in a Dog"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"29","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4985-8115","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Donghee","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Veterinary Surgery and Ophthalmology, College of Veterinary Medicine Chungbuk National University Cheongju Korea"},{"name":"Cheonan Animal Medical Center Cheonan Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-2083-6159","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Geunseop","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cheonan Animal Medical Center Cheonan Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7165-6731","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kyung\u2010Mee","family":"Park","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Veterinary Surgery and Ophthalmology, College of Veterinary Medicine Chungbuk National University Cheongju Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/vop.12015"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","first-page":"56","article-title":"Prolapse of the Gland of the Third Eyelid in Dogs: A Retrospective Study of 89 Cases (1980 to 1990)","volume":"29","author":"Morgan R.
