Epidermoid cysts are benign malformations that can be encountered anywhere in the body and are rarely observed in the oral cavity accounting for <0.01% of all cysts of the oral cavity. They can be classified as either congenital or acquired without any clinical or histologic differences. Our literature search did not find any report of a congenital epidermoid cyst located in the soft palate associated with a complete palatal cleft in an infant. This is a case report of a 9-month-old female patient who had a cleft palate with an associated soft tissue mass at the junction of soft palate and uvula.
表皮样囊肿是一种良性畸形,可发生于身体的任何部位,在口腔中很少见,占口腔所有囊肿的比例不到0.01%。它们可分为先天性或后天性,在临床或组织学上没有任何差异。我们的文献检索未发现任何关于婴儿软腭先天性表皮样囊肿合并完全性腭裂的报告。本文报告一例9个月大的女性患者,其患有腭裂,在软腭与悬雍垂交界处伴有软组织肿块。
