cyst

The cyst - An abnormal but usually harmless lump or swelling filled with fluid or semisolid material. Cysts occur in body organs or tissues.

There are various types, including sebaceous cysts, dermoid cysts, ovarian cysts, breast cysts, Baker’s cysts, and cysts that form around parasites in diseases such as hydatid disease or amoebiasis. Cysts may need to be removed surgically if they disrupt the function of body tissues.
