We report a healthy 18-year-old male Saudi with bilateral agenesis of the lacrimal puncta and canaliculi associated with large dacryocystocele on the right side without tearing or inflammation, detected in conjunction with other characteristic features of lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital dysplasia syndrome. Computed tomography scan indicated that dacryocystoceles were bilateral and asymmetrical, with large dimensions at the right side and associated to a right side maxillary sinus mucocele. The right dacryocystocele was surgically removed, and the histology indicated characteristics of the lacrimal sac. The liquid content of the dacryocystocele was negative for microbes. The atypical mucocele in the maxillary sinus disappeared after dacryocystocele removal probably, due to recovery of sinus drainage.
我们报告了一名18岁健康的沙特男性,双侧泪点和泪小管发育不全,并伴有右侧巨大泪囊膨出,无流泪或炎症表现,该病例在检查泪腺 - 耳 - 牙 - 指发育异常综合征的其他特征时被发现。计算机断层扫描显示泪囊膨出为双侧且不对称,右侧较大,并伴有右侧上颌窦黏液囊肿。右侧泪囊膨出通过手术切除,组织学检查显示为泪囊的特征。泪囊膨出的液体内容物微生物检测为阴性。泪囊膨出切除后,上颌窦的非典型黏液囊肿可能因鼻窦引流恢复而消失。
