Overview

Common complications of ovarian dermoid cysts include torsion, rupture, and infection.[1][2] Common complications of periorbital dermoid cysts include inflammation and recurrence when not completely excised.[1] Rupture is the most common complication of spinal dermoid cysts.[1] Common complications of intracranial dermoid cysts include compression of adjacent structures from the mass effect and rupture of the cysts.[3][4] Infection is the most common complication of dermoid cysts of the floor of the mouth.[5]

Complications

Ovarian Dermoid Cyst

  • Common complications of ovarian dermoid cysts include:[1][2]
    • Torsion
    • Rupture
    • Infection

Periorbital Dermoid Cyst

  • Common complications of periorbital dermoid cysts include:[1]
    • Inflammation
      • When a dermoid cyst is disrupted, it results in an inflammatory reaction.
    • Recurrence when not completely excised

Spinal Dermoid Cyst

  • Rupture is the most common complication of spinal dermoid cysts.[1]

Intracranial Dermoid Cyst

  • Common complications of intracranial dermoid cysts include:[6][4]
    • Mass effect
      • Compression of adjacent structures, e.g. optic chiasm
    • Rupture (spontaneous, traumatic, or iatrogenic (at resection))
      • Fat droplets from the ruptured cysts may disseminate into the subarachnoid space and ventricles which may result in the development of aseptic chemical meningitis

Dermoid Cysts of the Floor of the Mouth

  • Infection is the most common complication of dermoid cysts of the floor of the mouth.[5]
