Abstract

Sebaceous cyst is a keratin filled cyst that occurs in hair bearing areas of the body like scalp, face, neck, back and scrotum. There are various modalities of treatment for these cysts, the commonest being surgical excision. We report a 30 year old male who presented to us with multiple sebaceous cysts over his scrotum. We aimed to remove the cysts with no bleeding and minimal scar formation. Electrodessication of the cysts was done and it yielded very good result.

Keywords: Sebaceous cyst, Epidermoid cyst, Electrodessication.
