Pathophysiology
- Dermoid cyst is a mature cystic teratoma that arises from the ectodermal and are generally formed of skin, hair follicles, teeth and sebaceous glands.[1]
Gross pathology
- On gross pathology, uniloculated cysts lined by skin, containing sebaceous glands, hair follicles, and teeth are characteristic findings of dermoid cysts.[1]
