Abstract

Epidermoid inclusion cysts are a relatively common finding following superficial trauma. Inclusion cysts have previously been reported following rhinoplasty, but these have been mucosal cysts and one case of a paraffinoma. A case of multiple recurrent epidermoid inclusion cysts, developing in relation to rhinoplasty, is presented.
