Summary:Epidermoid cyst is slowly growing, round and firm tumor. Generally it grows up to 0.5 to 5 cm in diameter. Epidermoid cyst is rarely found in postauricular region. The cyst is intradermal or subcutaneous sac-like structure that is surrounded by keratinized epithelium with no dermal annexe in its covering epithelium. In surgical treatment, the cyst wall must be completely removed because residual portions of it can result in cyst recurrence. We report a case in which a 41-year-old man developed an epidermoid cyst presenting as a large postauricular swelling with a review of literature. KCI Citation Count: 0
