title: [Median raphe cysts of the perineum in childhood].
abstract: Median raphe cysts of the perineum are uncommon congenital lesions. Congenital lesions rarely encountered in daily clinical practice. Their diagnosis in childhood is particularly rare. We report two children with these cysts requiring surgical removal. We review the embryological, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of these cysts, which could be of interest to pediatricians and pediatric surgeons when faced with this pathology in children.
