Overview
History
- The majority of patients with ovarian dermoid cysts are asymptomatic. They are discovered incidentally on routine physical exam or imaging for other reasons.[1]
Symptoms
Ovarian Dermoid Cyst
- Ovarian dermoid cysts may present with:[1]
- Abdominal pain
- Abdominal mass
- Large dermoid cysts that may predispose to ovarian torsion may present with acute pelvic pain.[2]
- Less common symptoms of ovarian dermoid cysts may include bowel and bladder disturbances and backache.[3][1]
Periorbital Dermoid Cyst
Spinal Dermoid Cyst
- Spinal dermoid cysts most commonly involve the lumbosacral region than the thoracic vertebrae and are extramedullary in location.[4]
- Symptoms of spinal dermoid cyst may include:[5][6]
- Pain
- Motor disturbances (hemiplegia)
- Sensory disturbances
- Bowel and/or bladder dysfunction
- Fecal retention or incontinence
- Urinary retention or incontinence
- Spinal dermoid cysts complicated by rupture may present with the following: [7]
- Headache
- Nausea, vomiting
- Vertigo
- Vision problems
- Mental changes
Intracranial Dermoid Cyst
- Headache is the most prominent symptom of intracranial dermoid cyst.[8]
- Less common symptoms of intracranial dermoid cysts include:
- Seizures
- Focal neurological deficits
- Motor disturbances
- Sensory deficits
Dermoid Cysts of the Floor of the Mouth
