  • Description: <jats:p>Cutaneous cysts in dogs and cats are characterized by an epithelial wall and a content that generally is keratin. Most cysts have follicular origin and good prognostic. Surgical removal is recommended and as a result it has a large surgical defect that typically requires technical knowledge of reconstructive plastic surgery for occlusion. This report describes the case of a female boxer dog that had a nodule on the head. After clinical and laboratory examination was recommended removal of the lump and the execution of an histopathologic exam. The surgical procedure demanded to perform an unilateral advancement flap associated with Bürrow’s triangle, to approach the wound edges that were under high tissue tension. In postoperative was made a bandage to avoid formation. The histopathologic exam revealed it to be an infundibular cyst, that is usual in dogs.</jats:p>
