[Periorbital, blue tumour in newborn twins]. / Periorbitale, blauwe zwelling bij pasgeboren tweeling.

ABSTRACT

Newborn twins both had a blue, smooth tumour in the inner angle of the orbit; one of them had two such tumours. They were diagnosed with congenital dacryocystoceles. If decompression into the nose is not effective, patients should undergo probing early in life to reduce the incidence of dacryocystitis and orbital cellulitis.
