The cyst was excised via intraoral approach after decompression . The pathological report was a teratoid cyst.

ÖZET
Dermoid kistler, içerisinde cilt eklerini barındıran epitel ile çevrili kavitelerdir. Kist duvarını oluşturan dokunun histolojik tipine göre dermoid, epidermoid ve teratoid olarak üç grupta sınıflandırılır. Bu kistlerin tedavisinde en etkili metod, cerrahi eksizyondur. Sunulan bu vaka, intraoral yolla cerrahi eksizyon uygulanan ağız tabanı yerleşimli hiyoid düzeyine kadar uzanan büyük bir teratoid kist olgusudur. Kist dekompresyon sonrasında intraoral yaklaşımla cerrahi eksizyon yapılarak tedavi edildi. Patoloji sonucu teratoid kist olarak rapor edildi.
