Changes in nasal flora one year after endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy.

CONCLUSIONS: One year after EDSR surgery with silicon stent placement, we detected changes in the nasal flora in the operated side compared with the non-operated side. Even though more than half of the nasal cultures in the study group were positive for MDR bacteria, these microorganisms did not cause attacks of dacryocystitis or affect surgical success.
