Histopathologically, the cyst was lined by stratified squamous epithelium and filled with desquamated keratin. The lumen of the cyst contained squamous debris and numerous hair shafts extending from the wall of the cyst. The wall consisted of two to ten layers of cells, and varied in thickness from one part of the wall to another.
