Two patients had history of lacrimalsac abscess that needed drainage.
2
Squamous cell carcinomas are the most common malignant lacrimalsac neoplasms.
3
Dacryocystography allows the identification of space-occupying tumors in the lacrimalsac.
4
The malignant tumor of lacrimalsac often occurs in the middle-aged and elderly patients.
5
Ocular rhinosporidiosis usually involves the conjunctiva and the lacrimalsac.
6
We report a very rare case of recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma with local involvement of lacrimalsac.
7
The patients with primary lacrimalsac borderline and malignant masses were all in the groups of over 40 years old.
8
Success of treatment was defined as complete resolution of symptoms and negative regurgitation on pressure over lacrimalsac (ROPLAS) area.
9
Despite these facts, a case of an angiofibroma presented in a 15-month-old boy at an atypical site anterior and medial to the lacrimalsac.
10
Methods: In this retrospective observational case series, pathology records were searched for all cases of lacrimalsac mucoepidermoid carcinoma diagnosed between 1990 and 2018.
11
These neoplasms consisted of primary peripunctal neoplasms in 17 patients, primary canalicular neoplasms in 2 patients, and primary lacrimalsac neoplasms in 45 patients.
12
Lacrimalsacs and ducts were well visualized in all of 10 normal volunteers by using the saline solution or the diluted Gd-DTPA solution.
13
Lacrimalsac transitional cell carcinoma relapsed 7 months after surgery in one patient, and lacrimal sac melanoma relapsed 1 year after surgery in one patient.
