Abstract
An 18-year-old girl had a cyst excised from the left buttock in 1988. The cyst was diagnosed to be a cutaneous ciliated cyst, since histologic examination using special stains demonstrated its lining to be similar to fallopian tube epithelium. Only 20 such cases have been published to date, and this report is probably the first case in the plastic surgical literature, to the best of our knowledge.
