Abstract
An unusual case of rapid-growing posttraumatic gluteal epidermal cyst with ischiorectal and presacral extension is reported. Pertinent clini cal history and magnetic resonance imaging allowed accurate preoperati ve diagnosis. Cautious complete excision was important to prevent recu rrence. To our knowledge, posttraumatic gluteal epidermal cyst with th is unusual clinical presentation has not been described previously.
