Should the solid variant of odontogenic keratocyst and keratoameloblastoma be classified as the same entity? A clinicopathological analysis of nine cases and a review of the literature

We describe an unusual case of an odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) associated with an ungrafted left-sided alveolar cleft in a 10-year-old male patient. There is no previous report in the literature of OKC or other dental cysts associated with an alveolar cleft. We discuss the management of the OKC prior to secondary bone grafting and present this case to highlight the difficulty in the management of OKC concurrent with grafting of the alveolar cleft site, the proximity of unerupted permanent teeth, and possible treatment modalities.

Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) and ameloblastomas are distinct histopathologically diagnosed odontogenic lesions of the oral cavity. Both are primarily located in the posterior regions of the mandible, however, they can involve the maxilla as well. The occurrence of both an OKC and ameloblastoma in a patient is very uncommon. This case demonstrated such a lesion in the mandible of a 57 years old female. The diagnostic work-up and features of both lesions are illustrated with special focus on histopathological variances distinguishing OKC from ameloblastoma with the support of immunohistochemistry. This case highlights the importance of identifying accurate diagnoses for such lesions which may prompt clinical implications. Clinico-pathologic understanding of both lesions signifies the need for careful management plan and prevention of recurrence. Previously reported simultaneous occurrences of odontogenic cysts and/or tumors in the oral cavity are also reviewed.
