Abstract | Lacrimal gland cysts are rare clinical entities in the pediatric population. Herein is described a 6-year-old male patient presenting with progressive left upper lid ptosis, found to have a large ipsilateral superotemporal orbital mass. Diagnosis of a giant lacrimal gland cyst was confirmed excisional biopsy. Despite the resolution of mechanical blepharoptosis, the patient maintained visual acuity limitation due to suspected deprivation amblyopia. The pathophysiology and clinical manifestations of lacrimal gland cysts in the pediatric population are reviewed to emphasize the importance of expedited identification and management in this patient cohort. |
