A cutaneous ciliated cyst (CCC) is a rare, benign tumor in young female adults, which is usually found on the lower extremities.
We found an uncommon location of CCC in the anterolateral cervical area and reviewed the literature. A 20-year-old female complained of a well-defined, painless, palpable mass that started several years ago. The mass was tense and movable and located at the anterolateral aspect of the neck. Imaging showed a non-enhancing round mass. Surgical excision biopsy was performed, and the cystic mass was revealed to be a CCC.
The rare location of CCC can be found in anterior neck area, which should be another diagnostic option for mass on anterior neck.
皮肤纤毛囊肿(CCC)是年轻成年女性中一种罕见的良性肿瘤,通常见于下肢。
我们发现一例CCC位于颈前外侧区域,较为罕见,并对相关文献进行了回顾。一名20岁女性主诉数年前出现一个边界清晰、无痛、可触及的肿块。肿块质地硬且可活动,位于颈部前外侧。影像学检查显示一个无强化的圆形肿块。进行了手术切除活检,结果显示该囊性肿块为皮肤纤毛囊肿。
皮肤纤毛囊肿可出现在颈部前方这一罕见部位,这应为颈部前方肿块的另一种诊断考虑。
