Epidermoid cyst of the floor of the mouth: two case reports

Abstract

Surgery of epidermoid cyst of the floor of the mouth is the treatment of choice. Access depends on the lesion's location in relation to the mylohyoid or geniohyoid muscles. If the cyst is located over the mylohyoid, surgery is carried out only through the oral cavity, whereas the extraoral incision was necessary only when the cysts were under the geniohyoid muscle.
