Dermoid cysts (DCs) are rare benign, epithelial-lined lesions. Up to 7% of them are found in the head and neck region and 80% of those predominantly occur in the orbit, in the nose, and in the floor of the mouth. The average age of presentation is around the age of six. Dermoid cysts located in the parotid gland have only been published in 19 cases so far. Interestingly, the mean age of occurrence in the parotid gland was much higher (31 years). We report on a four-year-old girl being the youngest patient who had ever been diagnosed with this disease.
皮样囊肿(DCs)是罕见的良性上皮内衬性病变。其中高达7%位于头颈部区域,而这些病变中的80%主要发生在眼眶、鼻腔和口底。发病的平均年龄约为6岁。位于腮腺的皮样囊肿迄今为止仅有19例发表。有趣的是,发生在腮腺的平均年龄要高得多(31岁)。我们报告了一名4岁女孩,她是有史以来被诊断患有这种疾病的最年轻患者。
