MATERIAL AND METHOD: This is a retrospective study done in Department of Pathology, G.R.M.C. Gwalior (MP). The study comprises of 21 cases in a span of three years.
RESULT: In our study out of 21 cases we found epidermoid cyst to be slightly more common in males (85%) than in females (15%). Majority of the cases were seen in the age group of 21-40 years.
