In the field of Oro-Maxilloface, epidermoid cysts are found in the blottom of the mouth, cheek, lips and tongue, but simultaneous multiple epidermoid cysts are rare.
This case was a 40-year-old female who had 3 independent epidermoid cysts in the regio submentalis and her chief complaint was swelling of this place.
In Japan, as far as we examined, multiple epidermoid cysts were reported in 6 cases in Oro-Maxillofacial region. However, only 1 case of multiple epidermoid cysts in the regio submentalis was reported.
Therefore, we report this rare case.
