The authors present a case of a newborn with bilateral dacryocystocele in whom repeated probing was unsuccessful. An associated intranasal cyst was diagnosed. Using fiberoptic nasal endoscopy, treatment consisted of probing, irrigation and marsupialization of the cyst. This rarely reported anomaly is a more common finding in dacryocystocele than previously recognized. Careful nasal examination in all infants with congenital dacryocystocele is recommended.
作者报告了一例双侧泪囊膨出的新生儿，多次泪道探通术均未成功。诊断出伴有鼻内囊肿。采用纤维鼻内镜检查，治疗方法包括囊肿的探通、冲洗和袋形缝合术。这种罕见报道的异常情况在泪囊膨出中比之前认识到的更为常见。建议对所有先天性泪囊膨出的婴儿进行仔细的鼻腔检查。
