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.

ABSTRACT Orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst (OOC) is a developmental cyst of odontogenic origin and was initially defined as the uncommon orthokeratinized variant of odontogenic keratocyst (OKC). However, recently World Health Organization has designated OOC as a distinct clinicopathologic entity as it has peculiar clinicopathologic aspects when compared to other developmental odontogenic cysts, especially OKCs. The orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst is histologically characterized by a thin, uniform, epithelial lining with orthokeratinization and a subjacent prominent granular cell layer. The purpose of the article is to present a case of OOC arising in the anterior mandible, an unusual site for the lesion and also highlights the importance of distinguishing it from the more commonly occurring keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT).

Glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is a very rare jaw cyst accounting for 0.2% of all odontogenic cysts. It presents usually in adults with a slight male predominance. It shows radiological, histopathological and even immunohistochemical overlap with low grade intraosseous mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) but their distinction is crucial. A 57-year-old woman with bilocular radiolucency in the anterior mandible crossing the midline is described here. Microscopy features were consistent with glandular odontogenic cyst but multiple MEC-like islands were seen in the capsule, creating a diagnostic head trip with low grade intraosseous MEC. However, the absence of cellular atypia and epidermoid and intermediate cells led to a final diagnosis of GOC, with close follow-up of the patient recommended. This rare finding shows the relation between GOC and MEC or the origin of MEC from GOC.

Abstract Glandular odontogenic cysts are rare odontogenic cysts with a wide range of histopathological features. In this paper we describe the clinical and pathological features of an unusual case of a glandular odontogenic cyst with metaplastic cartilage. The previous literature of odontogenic cysts presenting with metaplastic cartilage is reviewed alongside a discussion of the differential diagnoses. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of a glandular odontogenic cyst with metaplastic cartilage.

Extraoral sinus tract often poses a diagnostic challenge to the clinician owing to its rare occurrence and absence of symptoms. The accurate diagnosis and comprehensive management are inevitable as the aetiology of such lesions is often masked and requires holistic approach. The present case report encompasses the management of an extraoral discharging sinus tract at the base of the right nostril in a chronic smoker. The lesion which was earlier diagnosed to be of nonodontogenic origin persisted even after erratic treatment modalities. Our investigations showed the aetiology of sinus tract to be odontogenic. Initially, a five-step program as recommended by the Agency for Health Care Research and Quality was used for smoking cessation followed by root canal therapy (RCT) and surgical management of the sinus tract. The patient has been under stringent follow-up and no reoccurrence has been noted.

Introduction: Dentigerous cyst is the most common odontogenic cysts that are associated with the crowns of permanent teeth. Treatment modalities normally include enucleation or marsupialization of the cyst. However, currently there are no standard assessment criteria to dictate which kind of treatment for certain cases. The purpose of this report is to describe the successful outcome of conservative surgical management of a large dentigerous cyst associated with an unerupted right maxillary permanent canine in an 8-year-old boy. The cyst was enucleated partially but leaving the cystic lining surrounding the unerupted canine in order to preserve the tooth. 3-year follow up revealed good healing with significant root formation and tooth eruption.
