Endoscopic transcanalicular diode laser dacryocystorhinostomy:  is it an alternative method to conventional external dacryocystorhinostomy?
The success rate of EL-DCR was lower than that of the external DCR; however, no statistically significant difference was observed. Endoscopic transcanalicular diode laser DCR may be considered as an alternative method to external DCR with these results.
The PAVB, AVN, and DAVB have distinct histological features. Collagen septation of primary and secondary fascicles presents natural barriers within the tissues and to surrounding myocardium and structures. These findings confirm that the AV junction region contains a specialized conduction system that is anatomically isolated from ordinary myocardium.
