Extraoral epidermoid cysts in children are rare but distinct. Surgical excision via an external approach is recommended for small submental or extraoral cysts.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Head and Neck Surgery

Background:

  • Epidermoid cysts are benign tumors that can occur on the skin.
  • Extraoral epidermoid cysts are uncommon, particularly in children.
  • Previous literature has not clearly defined submental or extraoral epidermoid cysts as a distinct clinical entity.

Observation:

  • Three pediatric patients presented with extraoral epidermoid cysts.
  • The patients' ages at presentation were 21 months, 10 years, and 12 years.
  • The cysts were located externally, suggesting potential origin below the mylohyoid muscle.

Findings:

  • The extraoral epidermoid cysts were successfully excised in all three cases.
  • The study suggests that these cysts may represent a distinct clinical entity.

  • Small submental or extraoral epidermoid cysts are best treated with an extraoral surgical approach.

    • Implications:

    • This study highlights the possibility of extraoral epidermoid cysts in pediatric patients.
    • An extraoral approach may be the preferred method for removing small submental or extraoral epidermoid cysts.
    • Further research is warranted to understand the etiology and optimal management of these rare pediatric cysts.
