Epidermoid cysts in the oral cavity are very rare. They are slow and progressive in growth. Although congenital, they are diagnosed in second or third decayed of life. Epidermoid cyst in the floor of mouth is painless, doughy in consistency, fluctuant lesion and causes no symptoms until they are large enough to interfere with chewing or speech. In this article a 23 years old girl presented with lesion almost filling the oral cavity as well as sub mental component giving appearance of double chin. Lesion was surgically enucleated intraorally. Histopathological examination confirmed the presence of epidermoid cyst. Patient did well post operatively and there was no evidence of recurrence upto 1 year of follow up.
口腔表皮样囊肿非常罕见。它们生长缓慢且呈进行性。虽然是先天性的，但通常在生命的第二个或第三个十年被诊断出来。口底的表皮样囊肿无痛，质地如面团，有波动感，在囊肿足够大到影响咀嚼或说话之前不会引起任何症状。本文报道了一名23岁女性，其病变几乎占据整个口腔，并伴有颏下肿物，外观呈双下巴。病变通过口腔内手术摘除。组织病理学检查证实为表皮样囊肿。患者术后恢复良好，随访1年无复发迹象。
