	*Description:*	There is a unilocular cyst within the dermis. Multiple pilosebaceous units connect with the cyst. The surrounding dermis is mildly fibrotic. The cyst lining is stratified and squamous.
	*Comments:*	The histology of this dermoid cyst is classic while the clinical presentation is somewhat unusual. Dermoid cysts usually are submitted from infants around the eyes. This lesion was from an adult, but was reportedly present for a long time.

	*Contributor:*	Greg Hosler, MD, PhD
	*Description:*	There is a large cyst with intralumenal lamellated keratin. The cyst lining is attenuated.
	*Comments:*	This is a classic location for the cutaneous dermoid cyst, over the lateral eyebrow. The histology in this case is a little subtle, and one may be tempted to release it as an epidermoid cyst; however, the presence of few adnexal structures is enough for the diagnosis.
