Surgical Excision of Epidermoid Sebaceous Cyst

This procedure must be performed by a qualified healthcare professional in a clinical setting.

1. The physician will administer a local anesthetic to the area surrounding the cyst to ensure patient comfort.
2. A sterile incision will be made directly over the cyst or at the site of the punctum.
3. The surgeon will carefully dissect and remove the entire cyst sac, ensuring complete excision to prevent recurrence.
4. The incision site will be closed using sutures or medical-grade adhesive strips.
5. The excised tissue will be sent for histological examination to confirm the diagnosis and rule out alternative conditions.
6. After the procedure, the site should be monitored for signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or discharge, and follow-up with the clinician is required to remove sutures and assess healing.
