Abstract:
The authors describe a case of orbital rhabdomyosarcoma masquerading as a lacrimal mucocele in a newborn infant. Rhabdomyosarcoma is one of the few life-threatening diseases that an ophthalmologist may be the first to diagnose. This case highlights the importance of close monitoring of such presentations in the newborn.
