Giant Perianal Epidermoid Cyst: A Rare Case Report
Abstract
Epidermoid cysts located in the perianal region are rare benign lesions. This case report presents a 78-year-old male patient with a giant perianal epidermoid cyst measuring 94×59×76 mm, clinically suspected of malignancy. After MRI evaluation, the lesion was surgically excised and histopathologically diagnosed as an infundibular-type epidermoid cyst. Due to its unusual localization and large size, this case contributes to the limited literature on perianal epidermoid cysts.
