PURPOSE: We report the case of a 10-month-old with nasolacrimal duct obstruction (NLDO) associated with osteochondromyxoma (OMX), a very rare bone tumor.
OBSERVATIONS: A 10-month-old boy presented with a 6-month history of right eye epiphora not responding to digital massage and topical steroid-antibiotics eye drops. The ophthalmic exam showed right medial canthal swelling. During the ophthalmic exam an abnormal snoring sound was noted. The mother also reported that patient experienced frequent upper respiratory tract infections. Inspection of nostrils showed a right nasal lesion that upon comprehensive evaluation by ENT and pathology teams turned out to be an OMX with loss of PRKAR1A expression. Further genetic testing confirmed the Carney complex (CNC) diagnosis and the patient was referred to multidisciplinary care. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first cases of OMX-induced NLDO, where a typical looking congenital NLDO ended up with a diagnosis of a rare genetic disease.
CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE: We have described a case of OMX of the nasal cavity masquerading as congenital NLDO. This case emphasizes that NLDO is not always congenital if presenting within the first few months of life. It is important to obtain a thorough history and exam to evaluate potential differential diagnoses to guide subsequent decision-making steps.
