QMP Advanced Techniques in Endoscopic Lacrimal Surgery 2023
The field of ophthalmology has always been a fascinating subject. It involves ideas and technology that go beyond the ordinary street level observation of the eye. In fact, the field is so complex and specialized that it requires continuous learning for even the most seasoned professionals. For those seeking to enhance their ophthalmologic knowledge, surgical videos might be just the thing to take their practice to a whole new level. One such amazing resource is the new surgical video, “Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomies: From Simple to Complex Cases” by Dr. Jorge Corona.
The book provides detailed cases of eight patients treated for various types of lacrimal drainage obstruction by the process known as dacryocystorhinostomy, or DCR, using endoscopic surgery techniques. Each case follows a strict protocol and provides a complete view of the procedure from the placement of the tube to the control of bleeding. The cases are designed to highlight specific aspects of the surgical process that often trip up even the most experienced of practitioners. Furthermore, both adult and pediatric patients are considered, allowing for a comprehensive overview of potential issues and management of outpatient surgical surprises.
The average practitioner looking to learn more about the craft will find every case in the book to be instructive, as the good doctor’s technique provides numerous pointers on best practices. In fact, with more than four hours of video footage, the book provides an exhaustive overview of the process of DCR. The procedures are captured and presented in vivid high definition streaming that provides a clear picture of the surgical process. The video is readily available, making it easy for individuals in the field to access the latest surgical techniques and enhance their daily practice.
One remarkable aspect of the book is the sheer diversity of cases presented. Each case showcases a variety of problems faced by people seeking DCR surgery. These problems range from stenosis of the canal lacrimal to dermatitis. In one case, a patient presented with an obstruction in the left side of the canal lacrimal. In this instance, the practitioner was able to successfully treat the obstruction by using an endoscopic procedure. In another case, a patient presented with a complete obstruction of the canal lacrimal on the right and a partially blocked canal on the left. The solution was achieved by treating the blockages with DCR while also removing dacryolithes on the right side. Regardless of the patient’s symptoms, each case provides a comprehensive overview of the process and provides guidance on how to manage potential complications.
The book is written in an easily accessible format and is designed to accommodate both beginners and advanced practitioners in the field of ophthalmology. The cases are thoughtfully arranged and presented in a simple and clear manner, making it easy for even those with a basic understanding of the procedure to follow along. Dr. Corona provides detailed descriptions of the process, emphasizing the careful approach required when performing this type of surgery.
The book is also suitable for use as a reference resource for patients who have undergone the procedure or may be considering it. This is because each case provides a comprehensive view of the surgical process and highlights the milestone steps in the procedure. While it is not meant to be a substitute for professional medical advice, the book provides a deeper insight into the surgical process and empowers readers to make more informed decisions about their healthcare.
