Cases were divided into 3 groups, depending on the number of unsuccessful attempts (1 [group 1], 2 [group 2], and 3 [group 3] unsuccessful probings). Diagnosis of congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction was confirmed by history taking, clinical examination, and fluorescence disappearance test. All cases underwent nasal endoscopic-assisted probing and were followed up on the first week, first month, and third month following the procedure.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results.<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There were 50 eyes in group 1, 23 in group 2, and 11 in group 3. The causes of failure that were determined with endoscopy were as follows: functional insufficiency 8.3%, lower nasal concha tension 4.7%, thin membrane in Hasner valve 3.6%, thick membrane and fibrosis in the distal side of the duct 21.4%, probe progressed submucosally on the nasal wall 33.3%, different exit location in the nose 20.2%, nasal mucosa ballooning in the distal side of the duct 4.7%, mucocele 2.4%, and nasal polyposis 1.2%. The success rate in the groups was estimated as 86% in the first group, 69.5% in the second group, and 54.5% in the third group.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions.<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Performing the repetitive probings via nasal endoscopy provided information about the location and the shape of the obstruction and the opportunity to approach, according to the cause of the failure.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.5301\/ejo.5000149","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,4,24]],"date-time":"2012-04-24T19:14:54Z","timestamp":1335294894000},"page":"882-889","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Efficiency of Endoscopic Imaging in Repetitive Probing following Unsuccessful Probing"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Seydi","family":"Okumu\u015f","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Gaziantep, Gaziantep - Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"B\u00fclent","family":"G\u00fcrler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Gaziantep, Gaziantep - Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erol","family":"Co\u015fkun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Gaziantep, Gaziantep - Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cengiz","family":"Durucu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Gaziantep, Gaziantep - Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.
