Rare Presentation

The coexistence of epidermal cysts and lipomas at the same site is extremely rare, although epidermal cysts and lipomas are both common benign skin tumors. We present a rare case of an epidermal cyst with underlying lipoma on the back. This case report may simply be a result of coincidence, but the possibility of underlying subcutaneous tumors should be considered before epidermal cyst surgery.

ABSTRACT Lipomas are tumors of mature adipose tissue. They are commonly seen in the upper extremities, neck, shoulders, and trunk region. However, oral lipomas are relatively rare. They particularly occur in the areas of fat accumulation, especially the cheek, followed by the tongue, floor of the mouth, buccal sulcus and vestibule, lip, palate, and gingiva. Lipomas can be histopathologically classified into classic lipoma and its variant forms, such as fibrolipomas, spindle cell lipomas, intramuscular lipomas, angiolipomas, salivary gland lipomas, pleomorphic lipomas, myxoid lipomas, and atypical lipomas. There have only been a few cases reported on fibrolipoma involving the lower lip in young individuals. Herein, we present a case report on oral fibrolipoma of the lower lip in a 20-year-old female.

A giant epidermal cyst is a benign soft tissue mass commonly involving the trunk, hand and face. The authors report a rare presentation of a 69-year-old man who presented with a painful, slow-growing left arm mass for 30 years duration. Examination revealed a large, mobile, soft tissue mass of the lateral aspect of the left arm. MRI showed a large, cystic left arm soft tissue mass. The mass was excised and the diagnosis of a giant epidermal cyst was made based on imaging and histopathology after surgical resection. The mass measured 9.5 cm x 8 cm x 4 cm, which is the largest reported giant epidermal cyst of the upper extremity.

<p>Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is a viral infection of the skin and mucous membrane that usually presents as umbilicated, flesh colored dome shaped papules and are mostly self-limiting in immune competent individuals, though extensive lesions and atypical presentations may be observed in the immune-compromised. Here we present an extremely rare incidence of MC presenting as a sebaceous cyst (SC) in the post auricular region, in a fourteen year old immune-competent male child. Though few incidences of MC within an epidermal cyst (EC) have been reported, this infection primarily presenting as a cystic lesion simulating a SC in an immune competent individual is extremely rare. Imaging findings were consistent with subcutaneous cyst in keeping with a SC, which was then treated by surgical excision. Histopathology of the surgically removed lesion revealed a cyst lined by stratified squamous epithelium containing numerous molluscum bodies. No further treatment was required since this was the only intact lesion present. </p>

Myomucosal Flap

Reconstruction of floor of the mouth and ventral surface of the tongue defects can be challenging because inadequate correction can lead to mobility restriction of the tongue and resultant impairment of speech and swallowing. Ideal flap should be pliable, provide adequate bulk, be easy to harvest, and cosmetically acceptable. Commonly used ipsilateral facial artery–based myomucosal flaps may not be ideal if facial vessels need resection. We share our experience in a case of simultaneous primary mucoepidermoid carcinoma of right submandibular and sublingual glands, with a postsurgical defect involving floor of the mouth and ventral surface of the tongue, reconstructed with islanded facial artery myomucosal flap raised from left buccal mucosa and tunneled into the right floor of the mouth defect medial to mandible. The case is being reported to share the method of reconstruction as well as for the rare presentation of simultaneous primary mucoepidermoid carcinoma of multiple major salivary glands.
