A Rare Case of Epidermal Inclusion Cyst of Thyroid Gland

A Rare Case of Epidermal Inclusion Cyst of Thyroid Gland

The thyroid lesions comprise developmental, degenerative, cystic, non-neoplastic, and neoplastic etiology. Among cystic lesions of thyroid colloid cyst, papillary carcinoma of thyroid, thyroglossal cyst, and rarely epidermal cyst can be present. Epidermal inclusion cyst, though a common entity, is e...
