A 2-month-old boy developed a protuberant, blue nodule inferomedial to the left medial canthus. It was unresponsive to oral and intramuscular antibiotics. After developing difficulty breathing, he was admitted, with the diagnosis of a dacryocele, and, after an inconclusive ultrasound, underwent probing and irrigation with nasal endoscopy. Intraoperatively, the lesion appeared discontinuous with the nasolacrimal system and could not be decompressed. Postoperative magnetic resonance imaging suggested a hemangioma or possible collapsed dacryocele. Doppler ultrasound confirmed a perinasolacrimal duct hemangioma. Systemic propranolol treatment was initiated.
