Surg Neurol. 1994 Apr;41(4):334-7. doi: 10.1016/0090-3019(94)90186-4.

Abstract

Lacrimal ductal cysts are rare, especially in the orbit. A case of lacrimal ductal cyst in the orbital lobe, revealed by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, is described in a 16-year-old man who was successfully treated by complete surgical excision. The radiologic and clinical features of this type of lacrimal ductal cyst are discussed.
