摘要

The authors report a case of a large epidermoid cyst in the pre-auricular region of a 50year-old male, typically uncommon in the head and neck region. The focus is on the surgical technique, which highlights the novel application of Shira’s technique with some improvisation, using alginate impression material injection combined with packing of ribbon gauze for surgical excision under general anesthesia, ensuring complete removal. The report discusses surgical challenges, techniques to prevent recurrence, and emphasizes the importance of meticulous surgical methods for successful outcomes in treating large soft tissue cysts.
