  • Title: Radical resection for naso-lacrimal duct tumour.
    Author: Vickers PG, Shue CL, Ahmad H.
    Journal: Med J Malaysia; 1999 Jun; 54(2):277-9. PubMed ID: 10972044.
    Abstract:
    Naso-lacrimal duct tumours are uncommon and present with epiphora and swelling. Since the naso-lacrimal duct is embedded in bone for the majority of its anatomical length, the late presentation of proptosis is due to orbital extension of the tumour. Radical surgical treatment is necessary to establish clear margins and facilitate reconstruction.
