title: Ocular involvement in sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy.
abstract: Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy is a distinct clinical entity, with ophthalmic involvement in 10% of patients. Orbital as well as eyelid lesions have been described as part of the extra-lymph node involvement of this disorder. We recently examined a young boy with sinus histiocytosis with a bulbar conjunctival mass and chronic dacryocystitis.
