Abstract

Dermoid cyst is a benign cystic teratoma consisting of 3 germ cell origin tissues with predominant ectodermal origin and most commonly found in the ovary but rare in the scrotum. We reported two cases of intrascrotal dermoid cysts developed in 7 months and 3 years old boys which were confirmed hiatologically. In one case, the cyst developed from the testis and in another from the paratesticular tissue.
