Video Transcript
A chest-wall epidermal cyst excised on camera, with the surgeon's running commentary. He talks through breaking down the adhesions around the cyst, rotating it out through the defect in its membrane where the sebum has been pushing through, and checking that the patient feels no pain — noting that the cyst has been there for about twenty-five years.

a little bit of a sharp dissection of the base. So just like you see me before, what we're trying to do here is breakdown of the main adhesions as we can. And then we'll see how much of this we can just get to pop out for us. Recognizing the fact, and you can see it there. I rotate that through, and on that right, but that's the defect in the membrane there. That's where this is pushing out sebum or keratin. So the bigger issue with this is just the fact that this is a decent sized cyst.
So I'll just help that along a little bit. It's too bad the resins aren't here with us. You can feel when you do it. I can actually feel the adhesions breaking down as I do it. And that's hard to relate on a video. You can see where that's draining out. Just do that.
You okay? Yeah. You're okay, so no pain. You can see that's all membrane through there. Oh, there's been here now. I think it's approximately 25 years or so. Hard to spot and a little flutter over time. Yeah, good size. See if this is that a post issue behind it.
