Dermoid Cyst

Cutaneous dermoid cysts typically present in an infant along an embryonic fusion plane as a discrete, subcutaneous nodule (see Ch.ย 64). Dermoid cysts are usually 1โ€“4โ€‰cm in diameter. The most common location is around the eyes.

Pathology

Histologically, dermoid cysts are lined by stratified squamous epithelium that includes a granular layer. They contain other normal cutaneous structures such as hair, sebaceous lobules, eccrine glands, apocrine glands, and/or smooth muscle.

Treatment

Treatment is by excision. However, as the differential diagnosis includes neural heterotopias, imaging studies may be appropriate prior to excision in order to exclude a connection to the CNS (see Ch. 64).
