    Author: Kaur A, Agrawal A, Agrawal PK, Goel MM.
    Journal: Orbit; 2006 Jun; 25(2):163-5. PubMed ID: 16754231.
    Abstract:
    Ocular adnexal infestation in cysticercosis is unusual. A case of lacrimal canalicular obstruction by cysticercus cellulosae in a 35-year-old female is reported. The diagnosis was established by histopathological examination of the cyst, surgically removed from the above patient with a suspected benign neoplasm in the lacrimal passage. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of lacrimal canalicular obstruction by cysticercus cellulosae.
