Background Dermoid cysts are benign germ cell tumors with ectodermal and mesodermal components. It is a slow-growing lesion that commonly arises in the midline of the head and neck. The last location represented 7%, and the periorbital region was the most frequently arising area. True lateral neck dermoid cysts are rare. We present an unusual location of a dermoid cyst in a newborn. Case presentation We report an unusual location of a 10-day newborn giant dermoid cyst with multiple implantation sites, namely the shoulder, scapula, cervical, temporal, and occipital scalp. Successful surgical resection was achieved, and the patient was discharged after the removal of the stitches. Conclusion Dermoid cysts are unusual neoplasms with rare diagnoses at birth, but often in childhood. Concomitant implantation locations on the shoulder, neck, temporal, and occipital scalps are rare.

Dermoid cyst (DC), a rare benign tumor of developmental origin that develops from mesoderm and ectoderm, is frequently identified in children. DC refers to three cysts that are histologically related, namely, DC, epidermoid cyst, and teratoma. About 70% of DCs are discovered in children aged five years or younger, with the majority being congenital. DC of the head and neck are rare, accounting for only 7% of all such cysts. DC, or benign cutaneous tumors, tend to grow and persist. The presence of epithelial cells along the lines of embryonic closure results in a DC. It is always difficult to properly diagnose these lesions using clinical tests and conventional radiography. Histologically, a DC must have two germ cell layers, and the diagnosis can only be made with pathologic confirmation. Specialized imaging tests including CT, MRI, ultrasonography, and histological examinations should be performed to make a diagnosis and choose the best course of action for surgery.

“…Dermoid cysts are uncommon congenital formations that can occur in diverse regions of the human body such as the head, neck, retroperitoneum, ovaries, and brain [5][6][7][8][9]. These cysts commonly present in the head and neck region; most of which, however, are diagnosed before the age of five years old [5].…”

Dermoid cysts are benign masses of embryologic origin that can present in various anatomical locations throughout the human body. This article presents the case of a 30-year-old male who presented to our emergency department with complaints of tongue swelling accompanied by worsening dysphagia and dysphonia in the context of a chronic, midline mass in the floor of the mouth. Computed tomography (CT) imaging and surgical pathology of the mass ultimately revealed findings consistent with a dermoid cyst causing inferior displacement of the mylohyoid muscle. Initial management consisted of bedside drainage to temporize the airway, with marsupialization and in-office follow-up. Definitive treatment was achieved with surgical excision at a later date.
