Epidermal inclusion cysts form when the follicular infundibulum is disrupted, or when the surface of the skin becomes implanted below the skin through an injury or trauma in the area, such as a scratch, surgical wound or a skin condition like acne.
As such, CPT 11406 Excision, benign lesion including margins, except skin tags (unless listed elsewhere), trunk, arms or legs; excised diameter over 4.0 cm would be appropriate.
Epidermal inclusion cysts are extremely common, benign, not contagious, and can appear to resolve on their own. Without definitive treatment, they can reoccur. They often occur in areas where hair follicles have been inflamed and are usually common in conjunction with acne.[1][2][3]
Sebaceous cysts are typically harmless, slow-growing bumps under the skin. They often appear on the scalp, face, ears, trunk, back, or groin area. They are sometimes called epidermal inclusion cysts. But it's more accurate to call them sebaceous cysts.
Abstract. Epidermal inclusion cysts are benign cutaneous lesions caused by dermal or subdermal implantation and proliferation of epidermal squamous epithelium as a result of trauma or surgery. They are typically located on the scalp, face, trunk, neck, or back; however they can be found anywhere on the body.

Inclusion cysts are caused by trauma to the vaginal walls. For example, women may get an inclusion cyst after they have an episiotomy (a surgical cut used to enlarge the vaginal opening during childbirth) or when they have surgery that damages the lining of the vagina.
Epidermoid cysts are sometimes called epidermal cysts. They are also called sebaceous cysts. But a sebaceous cyst is different from an epidermoid cyst. They are also less common.
Epidermoid cysts have only a cheesy material composed of sebum and epithelial debris, which are made from squamous epithelium but dermoid cysts contain hair, sebaceous and sweat glands, and squamous epithelium.
