The article “Unusually large submandibular epidermoid cyst: A case report, differential diagnosis and therapy” published in pages 252-255, issue 2, vol. 5 of Contemporary Clinical Dentistry[1], is being retracted on the grounds of Plagiarism. It has been found that several sections of the article have been directly copied from a previously published article entitled, “Epidermoid cyst of submandibular region”, published in pages 435-437, issue 3, vol. 16 of Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology[2]. The authors of the Plagiarized article have taken the responsibility of the same and hence on the above grounds the article is now retracted.
