Abstract:
Intranasal dacryocystorhinostomy(DCR) has been used as a primary treatment of nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Silicon tube or stent(Song's stent in this case) is used in intranasal dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) for improvement of the lacrimal drainage system. But this material reacting with nasal mucosa induced inflammatory reaction. Consequently, we report a rare case of nasal polypoid mass caused by probably originated from nasal foreign body.
