Cutaneous ciliated cyst on the anterior neck in young women: A case report.

World J Clin Cases. 2020 Oct 06;8(19):4481-4487

Authors: Kim YH, Lee J

Abstract
BACKGROUND: A cutaneous ciliated cyst (CCC) is a rare, benign tumor in young female adults, which is usually found on the lower extremities.
CASE SUMMARY: We found an uncommon location of CCC in the anterolateral cervical area and reviewed the literature. A 20-year-old female complained of a well-defined, painless, palpable mass that started several years ago. The mass was tense and movable and located at the anterolateral aspect of the neck. Imaging showed a non-enhancing round mass. Surgical excision biopsy was performed, and the cystic mass was revealed to be a CCC.
CONCLUSION: The rare location of CCC can be found in anterior neck area, which should be another diagnostic option for mass on anterior neck.
