Abstract

The manuscript showcases images of an extensive ovarian dermoid cyst harboring a mandibular structure containing three teeth. To date, only six case reports have described teeth within a mandibular structure in a dermoid cyst. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first documented instance of a dermoid cyst with a mandibular structure containing teeth managed through transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery.
