Epidermoid cysts are unusual benign cysts that occur in the oral cavity less than 2% of the time. Epidermoid cysts isolated to the uvula are rare. A review of the literature has revealed only three confirmed cases of isolated uvular epidermoid cysts. We present a series of three such cases, two of which presented with significant symptomatology. The diagnosis and management of these unusual lesions will be discussed, as well as the differential diagnosis.
表皮样囊肿是一种罕见的良性囊肿，在口腔中出现的概率不到2%。孤立于悬雍垂的表皮样囊肿很罕见。文献回顾显示，仅有3例确诊的孤立性悬雍垂表皮样囊肿病例。我们报告了3例这样的病例，其中2例有明显的症状。将讨论这些不寻常病变的诊断和处理方法以及鉴别诊断。
