# Posttraumatic Epidermoid Inclusion Cyst Following Untreated Orbital‐Zygomaticomaxillary Fracture: Case Report

## TL;DR

A case report shows how an untreated facial injury from a car accident led to a rare cyst forming a year later.

## Contribution

This case highlights the delayed complication of an epidermoid cyst following an untreated facial fracture.

## Key findings

- An untreated orbital-zygomaticomaxillary fracture led to an epidermoid inclusion cyst after one year.
- The case emphasizes the importance of timely treatment for craniofacial injuries to prevent complications.

## Abstract

Timely and comprehensive treatment of craniofacial injuries is essential, as complications may arise, including epidermoid inclusion cysts. We hereby present a case of an orbital epidermoid cyst that developed a year after a patient was involved in a motor vehicle accident and sustained facial injuries that remained untreated.
