A 23 old female, with a mass in the right zigomaticofrontal region beginning from the childhood. Imaging tests show a cyst on the frontal zigomatic process with a total thickness bone defect under the cyst. Surgical resection was performed. The histopathologic examination resulted in dermoid cyst. The monitoring has been satisfactory. We present this case due to the unusual bone defect because usually the orbital dermoid cyst is located on the frontozygomatic suture.
