Presentation
We suggest a genetic basis of this disorder through presenting our case series. CASE PRESENTATION We present two cases of bilateral congenital dacryo- cystoceles occurring in a set of identical twins. [archive.org]

Workup
In patients with atypical presentations, including younger age and male gender, further workup is appropriate. Bloody punctual discharge or lacrimal sac distension above the medial canthal tendon is also highly suggestive of neoplasm. [en.wikipedia.org]
Based on combination of clinical features and workup Typical workup should include CBE (anemia), blood smear (schistocytes), EUC (GFR), stool cultures (Positive for E. coli O157:H7). [aimted.com]
