Abstract

Epidermoid cysts of traumatic origin are found mainly on palms, fingers and soles. They are believed to originate through implantation of epithelium by either surgical or accidental trauma into deeper mesenchymal tissue. A case of traumatic epidermoid inclusion cyst of the chin region is described.
