    This document summarizes and compares different types of dermal cysts: 1. An epidermal cyst is lined by normal epidermis with a granular layer and contains flakey keratin. A pilar cyst is lined by pale trichilemmal epithelium without a granular layer and contains compact keratin. A dermoid cyst is lined by epidermis containing all normal adnexal structures and contains flakey keratin and hair. 2. A ruptured epidermal cyst is lined by giant cells and histiocytes, sometimes with residual epidermis, containing flakey keratin. A hidrocystoma is lined by sweat duct cuboidal cells containing

    Dermal cyst

    Epidermal cyst

    Dermal cyst lined by epidermis with granular layer and containing flakey keratin.

    Pilar cyst ( Trichilemmal cyst)

    Dermal cyst lined by less basophilic trichilemmal epithelium containig compact pilar type keratin. Calcification is common.

    Infundibular cyst (Pilar cyst, infundibular type)

    Pilar cyst close to the epidermis arising from the infundibulum of the hair. Lined by trichilemmal (LT) as well as epidermal epithelium with granular layer (RT). Content of the cyst: Compact keratin.

    Epidermal and pilar cyst

    Compare the epidermal cyst with normal epidermis. Compare the pilar cyst with normal hair.

    Dermoid cyst

    Dermal cyst lined by epidermis with all normal adnexal structures. Lumen contains flakey keratin and hair.

    Epidermal, pilar, dermoid cyst compared

    Epidermal cyst: 1. Lining: Normal epidermis with granular layer. No adnexal structure. 2. Content: Flakey keratin.

    Pilar cyst: 1.Lining: Pale trichilemmal epithelium, no granular layer. 2.Content: Compact keratin

    Dermoid cyst: 1. Lining: Epidermis with adnexae. 2. Content: Flakey keratin, hair.

    Ruptured epidermal cyst

    Dermal cyst lined by giant cells, histiocytes,sometimes residual epidermis containing flakey keratin within the cyst cavity.

    Hidrocystoma

    Dermal cyst lined by small cuboidal cells of sweat duct. Cyst cavity contains fluid ( sweat ), but no keratin.

    Steatocystoma

    Multilocular dermal cyst lined by wavy squamous epithelium with sebaceous glands. Cyst cavity contains oily fluid, but no keratin. Origin of this cyst is the sebaceous gland duct.
