Acute dacryoadenitis can be a rare symptom of infectious mononucleosis. Prompt treatment with systemic steroids effectively resolved the lacrimal gland inflammation in this case.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Acute dacryoadenitis is inflammation of the lacrimal glands.
  • Infectious mononucleosis is a common viral illness.

Observation:

  • A 16-year-old female presented with severe, bilateral acute dacryoadenitis.
  • Computed tomographic scans confirmed lacrimal gland enlargement.
  • Diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis was confirmed through clinical and laboratory findings.

Findings:

  • Infectious mononucleosis can present with acute dacryoadenitis, an uncommon manifestation.
  • Systemic steroid treatment led to rapid resolution of symptoms.

Implications:

  • Clinicians should consider infectious mononucleosis in patients with acute dacryoadenitis.
