title: [Tumors of the inner angle of the eye].
abstract: The authors present an account of their longstanding experience with treatment of tumours affections of the inner angle of the eye. Careful preoperative examination incl. assessment of possible obstruction of the lacrimal pathways and CT examination of the affected area, which was the only method which did not produce falsely negative results, is essential. In this area they recommend radical surgery of tumours infiltrating into deep layers, i.e. extensive excision, incl. some sound tissue, and covering of the defect by a frontal flap. With regard to the danger of inadequate freezing they do not recommend in this area cryodestruction in deep tumours. The authors draw attention to the necessity of close collaboration of the ophthalmologist and otorhinolaryngologist which makes it possible to supplement the operation, when the paranasal sinuses are affected, which was essential in the great majority of the authors' patients.
