“…Cortezzi et al [13] in 1994 reported an epidermoid cyst of the floor of the mouth that reached a huge proportion and caused a life threatening situation because of secondary infection. Ikeda et al [14] described a patient with basal cell carcinoma arising from the walls of an epidermoid cyst. Lopez-Rios et al [15] described a patient with squamous cell carcinoma arising in the wall of an otherwise conventional epidermoid cyst.…”

Intraoral dermoid and epidermoid cysts are rare and account for less than 0.01% of all the cysts in the oral cavity. A large majority of the same arise in the floor of the mouth and infrequently in other sites. These cysts often remain asymptomatic for years until they reach a size that interferes with mastication, speech and rarely, breathing. However, they also can become acutely symptomatic if they are secondarily infected. We would like to report a case of a rare epidermoid cyst in the buccal mucosa with its differential diagnosis and a review of literature.

Cysts lined by stratified squamous epithelium indistinguishable from the epidermis, referred to as epidermoid cysts, epidermal inclusion cysts, and infundibular cysts, are the most common type of cyst occurring in the skin. They are invariably benign, and malignant neoplasms arising within the wall of such cysts are distinctly uncommon. Even basal-cell carcinoma, which is the most common cutaneous malignant neoplasm of the skin, has rarely been reported to occur in association with epidermoid cysts. The authors report their experience studying 2 patients with basal-cell carcinoma arising in association with an epidermoid cyst. These cases highlight the need to examine, histopathologically, tissue from this common and usually benign lesion. The authors also review the medical literature.

“…In 1977 Delacrètaz 6 collected a total of 17 cases of BCC developing in cutaneous cyst, 7 of them from epidermoid cyst. One case each was illustrated by Fukui 7 and by Ikeda and Ono, 8 and two cases by Mehregan et al 9 …”
