A mucous cyst is a sac filled with fluid that appears on the finger, above the joint located next to the nail (the distal interphalangeal joint). The cyst can often thin the skin around the nail.
Mucoid cysts are fluid-filled sacs that usually develop on or near the joints of the fingers, although the toes can be affected. Typically benign, they feel like firm, rubbery lumps, and are usually not painful unless they grow large enough to put pressure on nerves.
Facet joint cysts, also called synovial cysts, are benign, fluid-filled sacs that develop due to degeneration of the facet joints of the spine.
NCCC will consider improvements to the Alphabetic Index for this condition for a future edition of ICD-10-AM. Facet joint cyst should be assigned to M53. 8x Other specified dorsopathies by following the index pathway: disorder, spine, specified = M53.

Epidermal cysts are filled with dead skin cells, while true sebaceous cysts are filled with yellowish oily material.
Epidermoid cyst Epidermoid (ep-ih-DUR-moid) cysts are noncancerous small bumps beneath the skin. They can appear anywhere on the skin, but are most common on the face, neck and trunk. Epidermoid cysts are slow growing and often painless, so they rarely cause problems or need treatment.
