The cyst developed soon after the one case the cyst was 12 millimeters in length and 7 to 8 millimetersin width. A section through the centre of the tumor showed a centralcavity (Fig. 93). The implanted fragment of skin could readily beidentified by its characteristic anatomical structure. The epithelial cellsat the margins produced new cells which converted the piece of skininto a globular mass well supplied with blood-vessels. The cyst con-tained exclusively epidermic cells arranged in wavy stratified the other case the cyst had reached the size of a hempseed andshowed a similar structure.
