Cutaneous Ciliated Cyst in an Unusual Location: Between Two Scapulas

الملخص EN

Cutaneous ciliated cyst is defined as a rare, painless lesion frequently encountered on the lower extremities of young girls after puberty.

The cyst is surrounded by the columnar ciliary epithelium.

Apart from the lower extremities of girls, they may be localized on the scalp, scapula, thumb, abdomen, umbilicus, thigh, heel, knee, and gluteal region.

There are two theories to explain this localization.

The first is that they are mullerian heterotrophy, while the other is that they are ciliated metaplasia of eccrine glands.

In this paper, we described a cutaneous ciliated cyst, which was observed with a previously undescribed localization on the back of a 13-year-old female patient.
