A dermoid cyst is the result of inclusion of epithelial cells along the lines of embryonic closure. Dermoid cysts of the head neck are uncommon and account for only 7% of all such cysts. They are most often reported as arising in the floor of the mouth. Dermoid cyst is rarely seen in the parotid gland. To our knowledge, there have been only six previous case reports in the English literature. Dermoid cyst of the parotid gland in pediatric patient has not been previously reported in the literature. This is the first case report concerning a dermoid cyst in a pediatric patient.
皮样囊肿是沿胚胎闭合线包含上皮细胞的结果。头颈部皮样囊肿并不常见,仅占所有此类囊肿的7%。它们最常被报道发生于口腔底部。皮样囊肿在腮腺中很少见。据我们所知,英文文献中此前仅有6例病例报告。小儿腮腺皮样囊肿此前在文献中未见报道。这是首例关于小儿皮样囊肿的病例报告。
