Summary:Key Clinical Message Intraosseous epidermoid cysts in this report were related to a previous injury. A careful history taking is necessary to make a correct impression on the lesion. Definite diagnosis is made by histologic study. Abstract This report presents two cases of intraosseous epidermoid cyst of the finger treated with curettage and autogenous bone graft.
