Dermoid and epidermoid cysts are uncommon masses in the head and neck region of children. Although the most common location of inclusion cysts in the head and neck is the bregma, masses in this region must be differentiated from midline hemangiomas, lipomas, hematomas, or encephaloceles. Inclusion cysts should be considered in the differential diagnosis of all midline cystic lesions in infants, because, if left untreated, it may lead to devastating complications. We present the case of a slowly enlarging midline mass in a female infant to illustrate the potential for serious sequelae from inclusion cysts.
皮样囊肿和表皮样囊肿是儿童头颈部少见的肿块。尽管头颈部包涵囊肿最常见的部位是前囟,但该区域的肿块必须与中线血管瘤、脂肪瘤、血肿或脑膨出相鉴别。对于婴儿所有中线囊性病变的鉴别诊断都应考虑包涵囊肿,因为如果不治疗,可能会导致严重的并发症。我们报告一例女婴缓慢增大的中线肿块病例,以说明包涵囊肿可能导致的严重后遗症。
