Abstract:
A case report of a primary malignant melanoma of the lacrimal sac is presented. After excision a local recurrence appeared one year later. Wide, but incomplete excision and postoperative irradiation resulted in local tumour control for 4 years. The patient succumbed to a uremic death caused by a rectal cancer removed 3 years before the occurrence of the malignant melanoma.
