Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Dacryops are rare cystic lesions originating from lacrimal gland ducts.
  • Orbital cystic masses can present diagnostic challenges.

Observation:

  • A 49-year-old male presented with bilateral cystic masses in the superior lateral orbits.
  • Clinical, radiologic, and histopathologic evaluations were performed.

Findings:

  • The masses were histopathologically confirmed as dacryops.
  • Bilateral surgical excision of the dacryops was performed.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering dacryops in the differential diagnosis of orbital cystic lesions.
  • Successful surgical management of bilateral dacryops is demonstrated, offering a positive prognosis.
