title: [Sweating-related tears--a new syndrome?].
abstract: Two years after operative correction of a middle third fracture of the face, a patient suffered unilateral tearing and homolateral rhinorrhea as soon as he started sweating. This is explained by abnormal regeneration of autonomic nerve fibres. The possible anatomic pathways are discussed and compared with similar syndromes in the literature.
