Phalangeal intraosseous epidermoid cyst

Philip McGraw et al. Acta Orthop Belg. 2004 Aug.

The authors describe two cases of phalangeal intraosseous epidermoid cyst. Two theories try to explain their origin. One theory sees traumatic implantation of epidermal cells as causative. A second theory is based on faulty embryogenesis.
