title: Combined congenital dacryocoele and anterior orbital hydrencephalocoele.
abstract: The differential diagnosis of a medial canthal cystic mass in the new-born child includes dacryocoele, dermoid and, much more rarely, encephalocoele. We present a child with coexistent bilateral dacryocoeles and bifrontal anterior orbital hydrencephalocoeles.
