Abstract
Epidermal inclusion cysts are benign lesions that can develop in any part of the body and are rare to occur in penis. We report a case of congenital preputial epidermal inclusion cyst of in a 30 year old male patient. The swelling was of 4x3cm in size with a long skin pedicle of 4.2cm. Excision and primary closure of the preputial cyst was done and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis. To our knowledge no case has been reported in literature till date with such a long pedicle of congenital preputial epidermal inclusion cyst.
