more
A dermoid cyst is a teratoma that contains developmentally mature skin, with hair follicles and sweat glands, sometimes luxuriant clumps of long hair, and often pockets of sebum, blood, or fat. Because it contains mature tissue, a dermoid cyst almost always is benign. The rare malignant dermoid cyst usually develops squamous cell carcinoma.
