Fibrous Dysplasia-like Lacrimal Sac Tumor Associated With Dacryocystitis

A 72-year-old woman who presented with right-sided epiphora and conjunctivitis underwent a probing and irrigation procedure with normal results. She improved with antibiotic-steroid drops. A swelling in the medial canthal region completely resolved. One year later, she returned with symptoms of dacryocystitis. An external dacryocystorhinostomy was performed. Characteristic dacryoliths were removed from the sac lumen, and biopsy of the sac wall showed spicules of lamellar bone within a fibrous stroma. Diagnosed as fibrous dysplasia of the lacrimal sac, this rare entity represents the second such case in the literature.The histopathology of an ossified lacrimal sac resembled fibrous dysplasia of bone and exemplifies the second case of this rare entity in the literature.
