Uncommon tumor of the bone: Intraosseous epidermoid cyst

Candemir Ceran, Ersin Aksam, Cagla Cicek, Mustafa Erol Demirseren.


Abstract
Intraosseous epidermoid cyst is an uncommon bone tumor. The differential diagnosis of expansile, lytic lesions of the phalanges remains broad, and definitive diagnosis requires histopathological tissue analysis. Differentiation of intraosseous epidermoid cysts of the phalanx from other radiolucent lesions of the digits remains challenging, especially when classical radiographic findings are not seen. Here, we present a case of an intraosseous epidermoid cyst with atypical findings at the base of the distal phalanx of the thumb without a history of trauma. It was treated successfully without any complications.

Key words: Bone cysts, bone neoplasms, finger phalanges
