Abstract

Intracranial dermoid cysts are nonneoplastic, ectodermal inclusion cysts of embryological origin. They contain various ectodermal derivatives including apocrine glands, sebaceous glands, hairs, squamous epithelium, and occasionally teeth. Spontaneous rupture of these cysts is uncommon, and so far very few cases have been reported in the literature. Hereby, we report a case of young male presenting with ruptured intracranial dermoid cyst managed surgically.
