An option exists to extract cells that are neither inside or outside 
(i.e., boundary).
I suggest to use:

ExtractBoundaryCellsOn() 
<http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkExtractGeometry.html#3b589a6bd4c05ec9de7dd90dff7a366b>
ExtractOnlyBoundaryCellsOff 
<http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkExtractGeometry.html#46b40cb07437721d4a43cb0f4d0dc251>
