    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Lacrimal sac cysts are rare, and large ones present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
    • Understanding the clinical spectrum of lacrimal sac cysts is crucial for accurate diagnosis.

    Observation:

    • The largest lacrimal duct cyst ever reported in ophthalmic literature is presented.
    • The case includes the first computed tomographic (CT) imaging of this unusual lacrimal sac lesion.

    Findings:

    • Detailed presentation, workup, and treatment of a massive lacrimal sac cyst.
    • Emphasis on typical and atypical clinical features to aid in diagnosis.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the known spectrum of lacrimal sac cyst presentations.
    • The inclusion of CT imaging provides valuable insights for diagnosing similar rare conditions.
