Orbital dermoid cyst is mainly caused by abnormal development in embryonic period.

What's wrong with orbital dermoid cyst?

Orbital dermoid cyst mostly occurs in early embryo, mainly due to contact between epidermis and meninges. With the growth and development of embryo, bone wall and bone suture close between them. At this time, meninges will adhere to small pieces of epidermis and bury them in deep layers to gradually form orbital dermoid cyst. Therefore, there are epithelial hair, fat, sebaceous gland secretions and other skin-like components in the cyst.

If the cyst ruptures, patients should follow the doctor's advice to use amoxicillin capsules, cefixime capsules, levofloxacin hydrochloride capsules and other drugs to control inflammation and infection, and perform cyst resection as soon as possible.
