| Core Tip |
Localized amyloidosis is a very rare cause of nasolacrimal duct obstruction and dacryocystitis. It has been reported that amyloidosis in nasolacrimal excretory system may be invasive or present as a pseudo-dacryolith with clear bounder in liquid or colloidal forms. However, massive dacryolithiasis can also be formed and obstruct the nasolacrimal excretory system as a consequence. Computed tomography examination can be a noninvasive tool for preoperative evaluation in case of incapability of dacryocystorhinostomy and nasal endoscopy of fully displaying deeper structures of nasolacrimal excretory system. |
