To study the outcome and complications of endoscopic endonasal dacryocystrhinostomy without stenting. Randomised prospective observational design. Tertiary academic centre. Seventy patients, clinically diagnosed as chronic dacryocystitis with nasolacrimal duct obstruction on the basis of syringing, were enrolled. Endoscopy was done for nasal pathology especially mucosal disease, hypertrophied turbinate, DNS. Seventy-eight eyes were operated with endoscopic-dacryocystorhinostomy along with additional surgeries and periodically followed up on OPD-basis at the end of 1st week, 2nd week, 1st month and 3rd month and evaluated clinically and by syringing (Ophthalmologist) and endoscopy done, wherever required. Insulated microear ball probe cautery was used to create nasal mucosal flap in all cases. Eleven patients underwent septal surgery along with one concha bullosa and one agger nasi removal ( p  &lt; 0.05). Nil intraoperative complications ( p  &lt; 0.05) and single postoperative complication noted ( p  &lt; 0.05). Functional and anatomical patency found to be 100% at the end of 1st week, 98.7% at the end of 2nd week, 93.6% at end of 1st month and 91% at end of 3rd month. Nasal endoscopy showed restenosis in 1 patient at end of 2nd week, 4 patients at end of 1st month, 1 patient at the end of 3rd month along with granulation in 1 patient at the end of 3rd month. Revision surgery was done on 2 patients. Endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy is safe and successful procedure for chronic dacryocystitis, due to nasolacrimal duct obstruction with less complications without stenting. The associated intranasal pathology, which might be the cause, can be corrected and bilateral dacryocystorhinostomy can be performed in single sitting reducing patient's morbidity and hospital stay. Use of cautery with insulated ball probe for making nasal mucosal flaps gives an precise and excellent blood less field.
