Dermoid cysts are epithelial-lined cavities with skin adnexae in the capsule. Only 7% is present in the head and neck. Between 2004 and 2013, four patients with a lingual dermoid cyst underwent a microsurgical carbon dioxide laser resection via a median sagittal glossotomy approach. This approach is an elegant technique combining superior visualization, hemostasis, and little postoperative edema with good wound healing, allowing for perfect function preservation of the tongue.

Palpation might be important for the diagnosis of lingual thyroglossal duct cyst, 7 however the laryngoscope had greater advantage in the diagnosis. In our clinical data, only one case of lingual thyroglossal duct cyst was large enough to be found with a tongue spatula.…”
