Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
In this prospective, small case series, 3 patients with simple dacryops were analyzed along with a review of literature. All 3 patients in this series had classical clinical features of simple dacryops. All of them underwent complete cyst removal with the aid of a cryoprobe. Histopathology was compatible with dacryops. In 2 of the 3 patients, the cyst revealed calcification, which to the best of our knowledge has not been reported. None of the patients developed a recurrence. In conclusion, simple dacryops is an easily recognized clinical entity. This entity has been infrequently reviewed in the older literature, and in the last decade only 6 cases have been reported. Most of the patients underwent complete excision of the cyst with no recurrences. |
