abstract
The Dermoid cysts were clinically evaluated in 10- camels at the same anatomical location; cranio-lateral aspect of the neck adjacent to the juglar furrow unilaterally and bilaterally. On clinical examination, these cysts were soft fluctuating, hanging as pendulous growth, round mass and in few cases it was attached with diffuse attachment to the skin. Paracentesis of the growth revealed the straw coloured fluid. All the cysts were surgically excised carefully, avoiding the damage in juglar furrow under the xylazine sedation and local infiltration of 2% lignocaine hydrochloride. Gross examination of the cysts from inside revealed the impacted hair tufts in small pockets, glandular secretion, debris material and everted layer of the hard tissue. All the animals were fully recovered and no complication was seen. Early surgical excision is recommended to avoid the anxiety in animals because of the bulky nature of the cysts.
