A direct right inguinal hernia in a 62 years old male (himself a doctor, an ENT specialist) repaired (Lichtenstein). Husband of dr Marwaha, retired professor of gynaecology.
A breast lump, an antibioma with thick walls and thick pus in it excised. A 25 years old from Nabha, with history of swelling in the breast for more than 2 months, treated with antibiotics. Besides the thick walled big abscess cavity which was excised, there were areas of tiny abscesses around the main abscess arising out of dilated ducts – duct ectasia. These were opened up too.
An external angular dermoid excised under general anaesthesia.

The contents of a dermoid cyst usually consist of desquamated epithelium, fat droplets, cholestrol crystals, and occasionally detached hairs.
I will try to post more pictures.
