Abstract
An epidermoid cyst of the cecum is reported in an 8-year-old girl who presented with vague abdominal pain. Abdominal ultrasound scan showed a mass that was cystic in nature. During operation, a subserosal cystic mass was found in the wall of the cecum and confirmed to be an epidermoid cyst histopathologically. This is the first case of epidermoid cyst of the cecum in children reported in the literature.Entities:
