Spontaneous clitoral hood epidermal inclusion cyst mimicking clitoromegaly in a pediatric patient.

Abstract

Epidermal inclusion cysts are benign lesions that can be found in many parts of the body. They are rarely seen in the clitoral region in pediatric patients but when these are found, they are most commonly seen with a history of trauma. We report an uncommon case of a spontaneous nontraumatic epidermal inclusion cyst in the clitoral hood of a female child. This presentation mimicked clitoromegaly but was ultimately found to be a large epidermal cyst that was successfully excised surgically. We present the important pathologic findings and review the relevant literature.
