J Dermatol Case Rep. 2015 Dec 31;9(4):116-7. doi: 10.3315/jdcr.2015.1218.

Abstract

Cutaneous ciliated cysts are benign lesions occurring primarily on the lower extremity of girls and young women. We present a case of a cutaneous ciliated Mullerian cyst arising in the lower leg of a 14-year-old girl, with brief discussion of etiology and diagnosis. This is a rare entity with approximately 50 cases in the literature.
