Abstract
El quiste epidérmico de inclusión adquirido (QEIA) es un tumor intra-epitelial benigno y su localización más común es en cabeza y tórax, siendo la más inusual en el ombligo, se observa en adultos jóvenes y es de crecimiento lento e indoloro. El estudio histopatológico es el método de diagnóstico de certeza y su resección completa es el tratamiento de elección. Se presenta un caso de una adolescente de 15 años con un QEIA en el ombligo, que fue sometida a una escisión local total.
