    TLDR An elderly man had a rare, large skin cyst on his lower back, which was removed by surgery.
    The document reports an uncommon case of a large epidermal cyst, typically a benign tumor associated with hair follicles, located in the sacrococcygeal region of an elderly male. Epidermal cysts are often asymptomatic and can be mistaken for other types of cysts, such as dermoid cysts, but definitive diagnosis is achieved through histopathological examination. This particular case is notable due to the rarity of finding an epidermal cyst of significant size in the sacrococcygeal area, and the cyst was successfully removed through surgical excision.
