We report the frequency of lacrimal passage disorder and the outcomes of treatment. This retrospective study was performed on 55 cases that were treated with S-1 for at least 1 month. We asked patients about ocular symptoms. An ophthalmic surgeon examined all patients and diagnosed lacrimal passage disorder in 6 of 55 patients (12. 5%). The mean dose of S- 1 was 10, 300 mg, and the average period to onset of lacrimal passage disorder was 5. 7 months. The causes of epiphora included occlusion/stenosis of lacrimal canaliculus, occlusion of lacrimal puncta and stenosis of nasolacrimal duct. Lacrimal surgery was performed in all 6 patients and epiphora improved. Lacrimal passage disorder may result from systemic treatment of patients with S-1. Symptoms of lacrimal passage disorder improved with early detection and treatment by insertion of a silicone tube.
