Abstract

A rare lesion, steatocystoma simplex, in a previously unreported location, the oral cavity, is described. A case report, the differential diagnosis, and a review of the literature are offered. Differentiation between this cyst and steatocystoma multiplex is important in terms of the need for clinical follow-up.
