Dermoid cysts of the pancreas.
Pancreatic dermoid cysts are very rare. They are congenital abnormal growths arising from embryonic rests, usually appearing as a nontender abdominal mass. Abdominal pain and backaches are the usual symptoms, with or without signs of gastrointestinal obstruction. However, they may be totally asymptomatic. The treatment is surgical extirpation.
