The term dermoid cyst does not appear to be restricted to a single kind of lesion nor is it used in only a single medical discipline.

In contrast, neurosurgeons tend to view a dermoid cyst is associated with a congenital cyst of the spine or an intracranial congenital cyst. For pediatricians and dermatologists, dermoid cyst means subcutaneous cysts, which are usually congenital.[1]
