Lacrimal sac septum is a rare structural abnormality of the lacrimal system. A 15-year-old patient presented with epiphora and a mass inferior to the left medial canthal tendon. Dacryocystography and CT-dacryocystography revealed a dilated lacrimal sac with complete obstruction. A horizontal lacrimal sac septum was found in the mid-sac region during endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy. Histopathologic examination of the septum revealed chronic inflammation with stratified columnar epithelial cell lining consistent with the lacrimal sac.
泪囊隔是泪器系统一种罕见的结构异常。一名15岁患者出现溢泪症状,且在内眦腱下方有一肿物。泪囊造影和CT泪囊造影显示泪囊扩张并完全阻塞。在内窥镜下泪囊鼻腔造口术中,在泪囊中部发现一个水平泪囊隔。对该隔进行组织病理学检查,结果显示为慢性炎症,内衬分层柱状上皮细胞,与泪囊相符。
