Abstract
|
|
|
One case of epidermoid cyst of the ovary is added to the twelve reported in the literature. This rare lesion is usually an incidental finding. Its main interest is in its histogenesis, which includes metaplasia of the coelomic surface epithelium,
epithelial cell nests of the type encountered in Brenner tumors, monophyletic development of teratoma, and metaplasia of the rete ovarii. We investigated one case of epidermoid cyst. Histologic examination of the cyst showed a thin lining of
mature
keratinizing squamous epithelium unaccompanied by skin appendages or other teratomatous elements.
