A Rare Case Report: Acute Spontaneous Suppurative Dacryoadenitis

Abstract

We report a case of acute suppurative bacterial dacryoadenitis with abscess formation which is rarely seen in daily practice. A 67-year-old male had been suffering from swelling and purulent discharge on the right eye consulted to our ophthalmology clinics. We noted the ocular and orbit computerized tomography findings for the diagnosis at the beginning. Furthermore, we described the treatment options and its conclusions with the help of its magnetic resonance imaging findings.
