Abstract:
AIM: To measure the anatomical character of nasolacrimal dust by spiral CT 3D reconstruction in children.METHODS: The length of nasolacrimal dust and the angles between nasolacrimal dust and vertical plane,horizontal plane and coronal plane in 27 children(54 eyes) and 15 adults(30 eyes) were surveyed using spiral CT 3D reconstruction. While the length of nasolacrimal dust in 7 dead children(14 eyes) body were surveyed as comparison by anatomical method. The RESULTS:were analyzed by software SPSS 13.0 statistically. RESULTS: The length of nasolacrimal dust was 10.06±0.29mm in children and 11.51±1.54mm in adults by spiral CT 3D reconstruction,as 9.95±0.31mm in dead children body by anatomical method,with significant statistical difference between that of children and adults. The angles between nasolacrimal dust and vertical plane,horizontal plane and coronal plane in children were 7.96°±1.62°,73.24°±6.75°,and 12.31°±2.03° respectively,while the corresponding angels in adults were 8.08°±0.63°,72.69°±3.85° and 12.09°±1.21°. The difference between them had no statistical meaning. CONCLUSION: The anatomical data of children nasolacrimal dust obtained from spiral CT 3D reconstruction have important guidance to the therapy of nasolacrimal dust diseases in children.
