Abstract
Herein, we present a patient with acute proptosis and inferonasal displacement of the right eye. CT scan showed heterogeneous enlargement of the right lacrimal gland. During surgical exploration, a dark liquid exuded from the lacrimal gland and histopathology confirmed a diagnosis of lymphangioma. Clinical signs and symptoms improved after surgery and no recurrence occurred up to 2 years of follow-up.
