title: Atypical Presentation of Low-Grade Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma of the Lacrimal Sac.
abstract: Lymphoma of the lacrimal sac is uncommon and usually presents as a lacrimal sac mass, against a background of known systemic lymphoma. This study presents the case of a 70-year-old man with small lymphocytic lymphoma of the lacrimal sac and widespread systemic involvement presenting as common canalicular obstruction without a palpable mass or systemic symptoms.
