Giant Sublingual, Submental, and Lingual Dermoid Cyst Restricting Tongue Movement Undiagnosed for Several Years. Diseases 2024; 12:91. [PMID: 38785746 PMCID: PMC11119178 DOI: 10.3390/diseases12050091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Dermoid cysts occurring in the sublingual space are uncommon, typically manifesting as painless, gradually enlarging masses, usually not exceeding 3 cm in diameter. These cysts can resemble various conditions due to their clinical presentation, with a relatively low occurrence rate in the oral cavity, accounting for about 1.6% of all dermoid cysts. (2) Methods: We present the case of a 17-year-old female with a giant dermoid cyst involving the submental, sublingual, and lingual areas, undiagnosed for several years. Diagnosis was achieved through MRI and fine-needle aspiration, leading to the decision for surgical removal through a cervical approach. (3) Results: The healing process was uneventful. From the first day post-surgery, the patient began myofunctional therapy, successfully regaining proper tongue functions. Throughout a 24-month follow-up, the patient remained symptom-free. (4) Conclusions: A cervical approach can successfully treat giant oral dermoid cysts involving submental, sublingual, and lingual spaces. Tongue function can be successfully regained through myofunctional therapy after surgical treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidermoid and dermoid cysts are benign developmental anomalies that can form anywhere in the body. Despite the rarity of incidence in the head and neck, they can arise at a variety of craniofacial locations. The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical features of epidermoid and dermoid cysts arising in the craniofacial region with a literature review. METHODS A retrospective study was designed, and clinical features and surgical considerations were investigated from a literature review. Cases of epidermoid cysts in the scalp, temporal area, glabellar area, mouth floor, and buccal mucosa were described. RESULTS Dermoid cysts in more lateral regions of the scalp are rarely associated with intracranial extension. Because temporal dermoid cysts have a high rate of intracranial extension, radiological evaluation of the lesions in the temporal area is imperative. Epidermoid cysts in the glabellar area are usually superficial. Consideration of the surgical approach for an epidermoid cyst of the mouth floor is important. Because epidermoid cysts in the buccal mucosa are extremely rare, differential diagnosis was emphasized. Epidermoid cysts in the scalp, in the temporal intradiploic area, on the glabellar area in the periorbital region, in the mouth floor, and in the buccal mucosa were surgically excised considering the depth and location. Ten cases of epidermoid cysts in the buccal mucosa were retrieved from the literature review. CONCLUSIONS Consideration of the anatomic locations of epidermoid and dermoid cysts in the craniofacial region might help facilitate accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Dermoid cysts (DCs) and epidermoid cysts (ECs) are uncommon developmental cysts affecting the oral cavity. This study aims to evaluate patients with oral DCs and ECs and their demographic and clinicopathologic features. A retrospective descriptive cross-sectional study was performed. A total of 105,077 biopsy records of oral and maxillofacial lesions from seven Brazilian oral pathology centers were analyzed. All cases diagnosed as oral DCs and ECs were reviewed, and clinical, demographic, and histopathological data were collected. The series comprised 32 DCs (31.4%) and 70 ECs (68.6%). Most of the DCs occurred on the floor of the mouth (n = 14; 45.2%) of women (n = 17; 53.1%) with a mean age of 34.6 ± 21.6 years. All DCs were lined partially or entirely by stratified squamous epithelium (100%). Chronic inflammatory cells, melanin pigmentation, multinucleated giant cell reaction, and cholesterol clefts were observed in the fibrous capsule . Most of the ECs affected the labial mucosa (n = 20; 31.7%) of men (n = 39; 56.5%) with a mean age of 48.0±19.8 years. Microscopically, most ECs (n = 68; 97.1%) were lined entirely by stratified squamous epithelium. Two cysts (2.9%) showed areas of respiratory metaplasia. Chronic inflammatory cells, melanin pigmentation, multinucleated giant cell reaction, and cholesterol clefts were also observed in the fibrous capsule. Conservative surgical excision was the treatment of choice in all cases. Oral DCs and ECs are uncommon and often clinically misdiagnosed lesions. Clinicians should consider DCs and ECs in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue lesions in the oral cavity, mainly located on the floor of the mouth and labial mucosa.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dermoid cyst is a rare benign tumor exhibiting a typical radiological pattern and most commonly located along the midline. Laboratory examination was always normal. However, the features of some rare cases are atypical that can be easily misdiagnosed as other tumors. OBSERVATIONS A 58-year-old patient presented with tinnitus, dizziness, blurred vision, and gait unsteadiness. Laboratory examination showed the serum levels of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) were significantly increased (186 U/mL). A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a predominant hypodense lesion in the left frontotemporal region with a hyperdense mural nodule. The lesion appeared as an intracranial extradural mass with a mural nodule on the sagittal image, displaying mixed signal on T1- and T2-weighted imaging. A left frontotemporal craniotomy was performed for cyst resection. Histological results confirmed a diagnosis of dermoid cyst. No tumor recurrences were observed at the 9-month follow-up. LESSONS Extradural dermoid cyst with a mural nodule is extremely rare. When a hypodense lesion on CT shows mixed signal on T1- and T2-weighted imaging with a mural nodule, even if it is located in the extradural areas, it is important to consider a dermoid cyst. Serum CA19-9 combined with atypical imaging features may contribute to the diagnosis of dermoid cysts. Only recognition of atypical radiological features can avoid misdiagnosis.

Abstract
A dermoid cyst is a benign congenital lesion of ectodermal origin that can arise in any region of the body, though occurrence is rare. A young girl aged 2 years 4 months was referred to our hospital because of a painless mass in the floor of the mouth. Intraoral examination findings revealed a painless movable elastic soft mass on the floor of the mouth measuring approximately 15 mm in diameter. Magnetic resonance imaging indicated a cystic lesion, with low signal intensity shown in T1-weighted and extremely high signal intensity in T2-weighted images. These clinical findings indicated the presence of a dermoid cyst and removal was planned. Under general anesthesia with nasal intubation, surgical removal was performed through an incision on the floor of the mouth. Blunt dissection exposed the integrity of the cyst capsule, which was weakly attached to adjacent tissue. The excised mass was 19 mm × 14 mm × 11 mm in size. Histological examination findings confirmed a diagnosis of dermoid cyst. The operation was successfully completed without any complications and the postoperative course was good. It is important to properly evaluate cysts in children and provide proper treatment with appropriate timing.

Abstract
Congenital branchial fistulas and cysts are an interesting subject in cervical pathology. There are congenital malformations with late expression in young adults that require correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment. We review essential notions of cervical embryology to understand the mechanism of occurrence of these malformations and their clinical expression. The most common cases present vestiges from the second branchial arch, with the appearance of a cystic tumor or a fistulous orifice on the anterior edge of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, at the level of the hyoid bone. Performant imagery is mandatory for appropriate diagnosis, so we recommend a cervical computed tomography (CT) scan or cervical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate the relations with great vessels of the neck or other lesions. The treatment implies complete surgical excision because otherwise there is a high risk of recurrence of the lesion. The differential diagnosis includes cystic lymphangioma, dermoid cyst, tuberculous adenopathy, cystic hygroma, lateral cervical cystic metastases. Histological examination is mandatory for a definite diagnosis. Also, there is a small percentage of malignancy of these malformations, but it is very important to check that all the histological diagnostic criteria for a primary branchiogenic carcinoma are accomplished. Therefore, although it is a benign cystic cervical pathology, the diagnosis and treatment must be made very accurately for a complete cure, and this review aims to summarize the current approach to branchial remnants of the neck.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the pediatric population, dermoid cysts are among the most frequent lesions of the scalp and skull. Imaging plays a key role in characterizing scalp and skull lesions in order to narrow the differential diagnoses. In general, dermoids are described as heterogeneous T1-/T2-hypo- to hyperintense lesions on magnetic resonance imaging. METHODS The goal of this retrospective study is to evaluate the diffusion weighted imaging findings while reviewing the conventional T1-/T2-/T1+C-weighted MR characteristics in a pathology-proven series of 14 dermoids of the pediatric scalp and skull. RESULTS In our pediatric cohort (eight boys, six girls, age range 3-95 months), half of the dermoids were homogeneous T1-hypointense and homogeneous T2-hyperintense. We found a mixture of restricted (45.5%) and increased diffusion (54.5%) in dermoids. The vast majority of dermoids (91.7%) showed rim enhancement. Most dermoids (57.1%) were located at the midline and adjacent to one of its sutures. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that dermoids may have more variable imaging appearances than hitherto assumed and are frequently seen in close proximity or adjacent to the anterior fontanelle.

Abstract
Background Head and neck lesions, which are predominantly benign, were widely reported. Some of these tumors are potentially neoplastic and others are non-neoplastic. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the clinicopathological features of patients nominated for head and neck biopsies. Methodology In this study, data regarding head and neck biopsies were retrieved from the Department of Pathology at King Khalid Hospital, Hai'l, Northern Saudi Arabia. Data referring to head and neck biopsies of patients who were diagnosed during the period from January 2018 to December 2018 were included. Results The initial clinical presentations were stated for 50/64 (78.1%) head and neck lesions, 12/64 (18.8%) head and neck cysts, 1/64 (1.6%) keloid, and 1/64 (1.6%) ischemia. With regard to the biopsy's site, most were taken from the nose followed by oral cavity, scalp, ear, face, and eye, constituting 19/64 (29.7%), 15/64 (23.4%), 9/64 (14.1%), 5/65 (7.8%), 4/64 (6.2%), and 3/64 (4.7%), respectively. Conclusion Head and neck benign lesions, predominantly inflammatory lesions, are common in Northern Saudi Arabia. Accurate identification of these lesions is important during histopathological diagnosis, as some have pathological features that mimic some potentially neoplastic lesions.
