Abstract
|
|
|
An epidermoid cyst which is a beign tumor with a stratified squamous epithelium that lacks hair or skin appendage have been described as the most frequent tumorous malformation of central nervous system. Also epidermoid cyst may develop at any
other
organ, i.e. spleen, pancreas, testis, scalp, skull vaginal wall, or epiglottis. Almost of epidermoid cyst were diagnosed postoperatively because they have no specific radiologic finding and have difficulty in diagnosis by percutaneous needle
aspiration.
We report a case of epidermoid cyst which was diagnosed preoperatively as pancreatic head mass but was diagnosed postoperatively as epidermoid cyst at retroperitoneum separated from pancreas.
