摘要

Epidermal cysts are one of the most common benign skin tumors, although they are rarely found in the umbilicus of a child. Herein we report the case of a 13-year-old girl with a congenital umbilical mass. This mass had been misdiagnosed as a lipoma at birth. Awareness of this lesion can avoid its misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment.
