Introduction: Intracranial dermoid cysts are rare, congenital and, benign lesions. The etiology of these lesions is related to an embryonic defect during neurulation. Case presentation: The present study describes a case of a 3-year-old girl with a giant cerebellar dermoid cyst, which initially manifested as hydrocephalus. Discussion: We discuss its epidemiological characteristics as well as diagnostic and therapeutic management. The combination of high clinical suspicion, anamnesis, thorough physical examination, and adequate interpretation of neuroimaging data is crucial for the early diagnosis and timely therapeutic intervention for such cysts. Conclusion: Surgical approach involving complete lesion resection considerably improves prognosis.

A 40-year-old woman with mucoepidermoid variant of adenosquamous carcinoma arising in dermoid cyst in left ovary is presented. The patient was staged as IC. Total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, omentectomy, and pelvic and para-aortic lymph node sampling were carried out. The disease recurred in postoperative 12th month. To our best knowledge, this is 12th case of adenosquamous carcinoma in dermoid cyst and third case of mucoepidermoid variant of adenosquamous carcinoma in the literature.

Abstract Intracranial tumors associated with Klippel-Feil syndrome usually occur in children, with spinal tumors being more common in adults affected by the syndrome. A rare case of a dermoid cyst at the craniocervical junction presenting as aseptic meningitis in an adult with Klippel-Feil syndrome is described. A review of the literature on tumors associated with this syndrome is also presented.

Pancreatic dermoid cysts are a rare entity. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult. The diagnosis is generally taking intraoperative. A 20-year-old female presented with epigastric pain without nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, jaundice, and weight loss of one-month duration. Ultrasonography and computed tomography showed a smooth borders, solid, hyperechoic tumor within midline abdomen, without any connection to the stomach or spleen. At surgery, the entire mass was excised off of the head and inferior part of pancreas. Histopathologic evaluation revealed the rare diagnosis of a dermoid cyst. The diagnosis is difficult preoperatively in evaluating cystic pancreatic lesions by imaging. Therefore, we want to summarize the literature on this rare entity knowledge.

Introduction: Oral floor dermoid cysts are a rare entity. A cyst can cause malfunctions in the upper aerodigestive tract and slurred speech. The treatment of choice is essentially surgical. Case report: A 17-year-old male who presented with progressive swelling in the floor of the mouth since birth. Clinical examination revealed a painless, bulky, and symmetrical swelling in the floor of the mouth, pushing the tongue backward. Discussion: Giant oral floor cysts located under the mylohyoid muscle are usually removed extra orally. We report the case of a large dermoid cyst of the floor of the mouth, with extension at the base of the tongue, removed intraorally. Conclusion: The recommended surgical techniques vary according to the size and anatomical situation of the cysts. The intraoral approach is preferred for cysts that do not extend beyond the mylohyoid muscle.
