Overview

A definitive book on dermoid cysts, also known as mature cystic teratomas, a rare but fascinating condition due to its ubiquity and versatility. Indeed, dermoid cysts, or mature cystic teratomas, can affect any tissue, organ, or part of the body, both superficially and deeply. Furthermore, they have the ability to mimic any other disease, whether congenital or acquired, degenerative or inflammatory, benign or malignant tumours, malformations, vascular, neurological, or infectious, ranging from the most asymptomatic forms to the most severe clinical manifestations, even those that threaten the patient's life. Anyone who understands dermoid cysts / mature cystic teratomas possesses a comprehensive understanding of human medical pathology. Once you master this virtuoso of pathological mimicry in all its aspects-epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, therapeutic, and prognostic-you become a master in the art of differential diagnosis. And that is what distinguishes the good practitioner from the rest: knowing how to find the exact diagnosis among a multitude of hypotheses. This reference book should therefore have a place in the libraries of every healthcare professional, every medical school or university of health sciences, every public or private hospital, every governmental or non-governmental public health institution, every branch of the World Health Organization (WHO), and the general public, since anyone can have a dermoid cyst or mature cystic teratoma.
