  • Sublingual Dermoid Cyst: Review of 14 Cases.
    Annals of maxillofacial surgery, 2020
    Co-Authors: Omisakin Olatunde Oluleke, Kache Stephen Akau, Ayuba Iko Godwin, Aghadi Ifeanyi Kene, Ajike Olusegun Sunday
    Abstract:

    Background: Dermoid Cyst is a benign congenital lesion of ectodermal origin. They are commonly found throughout the body but rare in the oral cavity. It is a developmental lesion and usually due to retention of germinal epithelium during growth of brachial arches and lower jaw. It is commonly present in the sublingual region as a swelling in the middle of the mouth. It presents as a slow growing mass, causing elevation of the tongue and interference with speech and swallowing. Aim and Objective: To determine the epidemiology, presentation, co-morbidities and treatment of sublingual Dermoid Cyst in our Centre. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective review of all patients with sublingual Dermoid Cyst managed over a period of eight years from January 2010 to December 2017. Information was extracted from case files of patients. Data collected included: age of patient at presentation, sex, location of Cyst, co-morbidities, treatment giving, findings and histological diagnosis. Only patients with a histological diagnosis of Dermoid Cyst were included in the study. Results: Fourteen cases were included in this study. Eight were males (57.1%) and six (42.9%) females. Male to female ratio is 1.3:1. Age range is from Day 1 to 25years. Five were congenital sublingual Dermoid Cyst in newborn, one was attached to the tongue ventral surface, two were bulging from the submandibular and submental spaces in adults. The remaining six cases were limited to the floor of the mouth. Conclusion: Sublingual Dermoid Cyst could interfere with swallowing and speech, this affects patient nutrition and breathing. Therefore, surgical excision of the Cyst should be done promptly.

  • an unusual eyelid mass tarsal Dermoid Cyst
    Saudi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015
    Co-Authors: Almila Sarigul Sezenoz, Yonca Ozkan Arat, Merih Tepeoglu
    Abstract:

    We report the case of a 15-month-old boy who presented with a mass lesion of the right upper eyelid that had been present since birth and had slowly enlarged over the last 3 months. The lesion had minimal surrounding erythema simulating the appearance of a chalazion. Intraoperatively the lesion was noted to be firmly adherent to the underlying tarsus. The lesion was excised completely through an eyelid crease approach leaving the tarsus intact. The histopathology was consistent with Dermoid Cyst. To our knowledge, this is the third case of a tarsal Dermoid Cyst reported in the literature. Dermoid Cyst should be included in the differential diagnosis of eyelid mass lesions, and particulary differentiated from a chalazion to avoid mismanagement that may lead to scarring, recurrence and inflammation. The excision of these lesions sparing the underlying tarsus can be possible.

  • chemical peritonitis a rare complication of an iatrogenic ovarian Dermoid Cyst rupture
    Surgical Endoscopy and Other Interventional Techniques, 2003
    Co-Authors: D Clement, E Barranger, Y Benchimol, S Uzan
    Abstract:

    Abstract Laparoscopy is the standard method for the diagnosis and treatment of ovarian Dermoid Cysts, which represent 10% to 15% of all ovarian tumors. This procedure offers many advantages including less postoperative pain, lower risk of wound complication, early ambulation, and more rapid convalescence. The risk of adhesion formation also is reduced. However, in the case of an ovarian Dermoid Cyst, the laparoscopic approach could result in chemical peritonitis caused by the spilled contents of a ruptured Dermoid Cyst. We report a case of chemical peritonitis after rupture of an ovarian Dermoid Cyst during laparoscopy. Two operations were required, and medical treatment was not beneficial. We discuss a possible new medication for the treatment of this complication and compare this case with other recent reports.
