A Rare Location of Subgaleal Dermoid Cyst: Coronal Suture. A Propos of a Child

Abstract

Congenital dermoid cyst (CDC) is a benign, uncommon and, slowgrowing lesion covered with normal skin. Its characteristic manifestation is seen at birth and the sole treatment modality is total excision. The coronal suture is a rare location for the CDCs. Herein, we report a 15-month-old female who had cranial subgaleal CDC located in the left coronal suture. The cyst was completely excised after correct radiological diagnosis with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The differential diagnosis of slow-growing lesions of the cranium and scalp should be considered in the differential diagnosis.
