Dermoid cysts, also known as mature cystic teratomas, are most frequently encountered in young women. While these lesions can be found throughout the body, they rarely involve the perineum. In order to better understand the clinical presentation, evaluation, and treatment of a perineal dermoid cysts, we present a 22-year-old male with a right buttock mass.
