Glandular Odontogenic Cyst – a Case Report
Keyword(s):
Abstract: A Glandular Odontogenic Cyst (GOC) is a rare developmental cyst of odontogenic origin. Occurrence rate is low, with less than 150 cases reported in the literature thus far. 1 GOCs can be misdiagnosed due to clinicopathological similarities to other odontogenic cysts, including those of a benign and malignant nature. A wide range of ages can be affected, with a mean age of 45.7. 2 The most commonly affected site appears to be the anterior mandible. An unusual presentation of a GOC affecting the right posterior mandible of a 42-year-old male is reported. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This article highlights the importance of appropriate special investigations for a glandular odontogenic keratocyst and treatment modalities.
