[Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma of the mycosis fungoides type in the area of the eyelid and lacrimal ducts].

Patient: A 62-year-old former miner with silicosis of the lungs but otherwise in good general condition presented with a solid nodule in the nasal left lid area for a duration of three months. Because of a central ulceration the reference diagnosis was basalioma. The tumour infiltrated the nasal part of the upper and lower eyelid and the tear ducts so that these were unrinseable.
