Necrotizing dacryometaplasia – A needle in haystack of necrotizing sialometaplasia
Journal of Clinical Ophthalmology and Research(2023)
摘要
Necrotizing dacryometaplasia (ND) is a rare entity which can mimic an aggressive malignant tumor. It seems to be analogous to necrotizing sialometaplasia which generally affects the salivary glands and is an inflammatory condition. There is scarce information about this entity as only two case reports have been reported in the last two decades. Due to the presence of adjacent bony erosion, it may mimic an aggressive malignant tumor. Here, we report a 27-year-old male who presented with right upper eyelid swelling for 2 months, which clinically and radiologically pointed to be a malignancy turned out to be ND.
