Tumours of the lacrimal duct apparatus (LDA) are rare and heterogenous but knowledge of their aetiology is important for the rhinologist. A link between transitional cell papilloma/carcinoma (TCP/TCC) and human papilloma virus (HPV) has been suggested in previous studies. We aimed to add to this body of evidence by submitting 16 LDA tumour samples from our tertiary referral centre for HPV analysis.
