Description: The real teaching point with this case, not unlike others, is to proceed slowly. These very superficial cysts can rupture quite easily and while that's not much of a complication, it sometimes makes things a bit easier in the long run. This healed nicely and without incident. Please feel free to leave comments and I'll get to them if I can.
