Abstract
Cranial epidermoid cysts are relatively rare. More frequently reported in middle-aged men with a wide variety of signs and symptoms such as headache, seizures, cerebellar and cranial nerve deficits/visual disturbance. The approach for surgical removal of the cyst depends on its size and location. In addition, a multidisciplinary team must be involved due to the common occurrence of misdiagnosis. We present the unusual age of presentation for intradiploic epidermoid cysts. A 14-year-old boy is complaining of a 2-month history of painless progressive swelling of the right eyebrow. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intradiploic cystic mass within the right frontal bone. The cystic mass was removed, and histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of an epidermoid cyst. This case illustrated the potential of developing intradiploic epidermoid cysts in pediatrics.
