Case report: bilateral lacrimal gland enlargement: an unusual manifestation of dacryops.
Dacryops is an uncommon condition and, because it is usually obvious clinically, patients rarely come to radiological investigation. However, it is important for the radiologist to consider this condition in the differential diagnosis of lacrimal gland swelling and therefore to look for a cystic component in the lesion. We present such a case and review the literature on this condition.
