pubmed:abstractText
Congenital dacryocystocoele occurs when the nasolacrimal drainage apparatus in the newborn has concomitant blocks at the level of the junction of the common canaliculus with the lacrimal sac and at the distal end of the nasolacrimal duct. This results in a typical pink or blue swelling in the region of the medial canthus. Spontaneous resolution is common, although dacryocystitis may supervene. Treatment should be conservative unless dacryocystitis occurs, or intranasal extension coexists. A series of seven consecutive cases is presented and a management plan for the neonate with congenital dacryocystocoele is proposed.
