Abstract

Head and neck dermoid cysts are relatively rare, and usually occur during childhood as solitary lesions. They are often identified and surgically removed at birth, being uncommon in adults. A 23-year-old male presented with a congenital tumor of the anterior fontanelle, which histopathological examination revealed a dermoid cyst. Surgical intervention is the treatment of choice to remove this lesion. The objective of this study is to report the case, once this type of lesion is rare in adults.

摘要

头颈部皮样囊肿相对少见，通常在儿童期以孤立性病变形式出现。它们常在出生时被发现并手术切除，在成人中并不常见。一名23岁男性因先天性前囟肿瘤就诊，组织病理学检查显示为皮样囊肿。手术干预是切除该病变的首选治疗方法。本研究的目的是报告该病例，因为这种类型的病变在成人中罕见。
