This study details our series of epidermoid cysts in the hand, characterising the incidence, clinical characteristics and recurrence rate after marginal excision. A historical cohort of 101 epidermoid cysts that were excised from a soft tissue or intraosseous location in the hand over a 27 year period were reviewed. The incidence of epidermoid cysts, patient age, sex, occupation, anatomic location, history of trauma, treatment complications and cyst recurrence rate were noted. Key findings of the study were as follows. Epidermoid cysts represented a significant portion of our relatively large series of hand tumours. The majority occurred in male patients, most often involving the soft tissues on the palmar aspect of the hand. Four percent were intraosseous epidermoid cysts. After excision with a marginal tumour margin we found that 11 cysts (11%) recurred.
本研究详细介绍了我们手部表皮样囊肿系列病例，描述了其发病率、临床特征以及边缘切除术后的复发率。回顾了一组历时27年从手部软组织或骨内部位切除的101例表皮样囊肿病例。记录了表皮样囊肿的发病率、患者年龄、性别、职业、解剖位置、创伤史、治疗并发症和囊肿复发率。该研究的主要发现如下。表皮样囊肿在我们相对较大的手部肿瘤系列病例中占相当大的比例。大多数发生在男性患者中，最常累及手掌侧的软组织。4%为骨内表皮样囊肿。在进行边缘性肿瘤切除术后，我们发现有11个囊肿（11%）复发。
