Abstract
Blood-stained tear which is considered as the tell-tale sign of malignancy was not very common in lacrimal sac lymphomas.[[3]] Long-standing inflammation is the proposed mechanism of lacrimal sac lymphoma. Keywords: Diffuse large B cell lymphoma; extra nodal lymphoma; lacrimal sac tumor EN Diffuse large B cell lymphoma extra nodal lymphoma lacrimal sac tumor 2618 2620 3 07/15/22 20220701 NES 220701 Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) constitutes around 30% of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. Altogether, among lacrimal sac lymphomas, 5-year overall survival is 65%.[[4]] Most of the patients with lacrimal sac lymphoma underwent surgery followed by adjuvant treatment as most of them were misdiagnosed as benign inflammatory lesions, and lacrimal sac is an unusual site for lymphoma.
