INTRODUCTION Epidermal inclusion cysts are common discrete nodules often formed in areas of previous trauma or surgery. A literature review indicated that large epidermal inclusion cysts of the pelvis are extremely rare. Accordingly, we present a case of a woman with a large pelvic epidermal inclusion cyst of the vaginal cuff, along with imaging studies and a review of the literature. CASE PR...

Epidermal cysts are intradermal or subcutaneous cystic tumors that frequently occur in the face, scalp, neck, and body trunk. Acquired cases of epidermal cyst commonly occur as a result of various surgical operations, chronic irritation, or trauma, all of which may trigger the occurrence of the invagination of squamous epithelium. A 57-year-old man presented with a palpable mass 7 cm×2 cm in si...

Seborrheic inclusion cyst (SIC) is a very rare variant of epidermal cyst of the skin. SIC shows seborrheic keratosis (SK)-like lesion in epidermal cyst. SIC is extremely rare; only 6 case reports have been published in the English literature. However, no immunohistochemical study of SIC has been reported. A 41-year-old Japanese man noticed a subcutaneous tumor in the neck. Physical examination ...

Conventional epidermal cysts are generally small, slow-growing, non-tender, dome-shaped lesions. An epidermal cyst is usually asymptomatic until it is infected or enlarged to the extent that it causes damage to adjacent anatomical structures. However, few cases of giant epidermal cysts in the neck have been reported. The present case reports a giant epidermal cyst in the posterior neck, which g...

BACKGROUND An epidermal cyst is a common keratin-filled epithelial-lined cyst. The treatment of choice for epidermal cysts is surgical excision. If the cyst becomes ruptured, incision and drainage with oral antibiotic therapy or intralesional steroid injection are required. OBJECTIVE To analyze the dermoscopic features that can differentiate between ruptured and unruptured epidermal cysts. ...

Epidermal cysts are commonly encountered, slow-growing superficial cysts in the hair-bearing areas of the body, and are usually discovered in the second and fourth decades of life. These cysts tend to be superficial, meaning that they can be easily found by ultrasound and digital palpation at a moderate degree of growth. However, we found a huge testicular cyst that went undetected until old ag...

Although there are numerous aetiologies for coccygodynia described in the medical literature, precoccygeal epidermal inclusion cyst presenting as a coccygodynia has not been reported. We report a 30-year-old woman with intractable coccygodynia. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a circumscribed precoccygeal cystic lesion. The removed cyst was pearly-white in appearance and contained cheesy mater...

Epidermal inclusion cysts (EIC) are benign lesions that can be encountered throughout the body, but with a low incidence in head and neck region. (1.6 to 7%) The various locations this region where cyst arise sublingual, submental, submandibular buccal mucosa. EIC present tonsils extremely rare reported less than 0.01% published English literature. We report incidental finding of epidermal acti...
