WHAT DOES DERMOID MEAN IN ENGLISH?

dermoid

Dermoid cyst

A dermoid cyst is a cystic teratoma that contains an array of developmentally mature, solid tissues. It frequently consists of skin, complete with hair follicles, and sweat glands. Other commonly found components include: clumps of long hair, pockets of sebum, blood, fat, bone, nails, teeth, eyes, cartilage, and thyroid tissue. Because it grows slowly and contains mature tissue, a dermoid cyst is almost always benign. The rare malignant dermoid cyst usually develops squamous cell carcinoma in adults; in infants and children it usually develops an endodermal sinus tumor.:781...
