Abstract

Female genital mutilation, particularly Type III infibulation, is associated with multiple delayed complications, including the rare development of epidermal inclusion cysts due to traumatic implantation of epidermal tissue. We describe a 10-year-old Somali girl who presented with a progressively enlarging clitoral mass and purulent discharge one year after undergoing Type III FGM. Examination revealed a well-defined cystic lesion, which was completely excised surgically with clitoral reconstruction. Histopathology confirmed an epidermal inclusion cyst. The patient recovered uneventfully without recurrence. This case emphasizes the importance of recognizing rare FGM-related complications in children and promoting culturally sensitive care and prevention efforts.
