Popis: The lacrimal sac compression by an anterior ethmoidal mucocele is unusual. The ethmoidal mucocele may masquerade as lacrimal sac mucocele and may lead to disastrous consequences if treated along the lines of lacrimal mucocele. We present a case of an 18-year-old female presenting with a mass lesion over the medial canthal area causing a dilemma in diagnosis.
