Odontogenic Keratocyst (OKC) is a benign, intraosseous, odontogenic cyst which originates from the basal cells of overlying epithelium or from the dental lamina remnants. Clinically, they are presented as asymptomatic swellings, although can sometimes be associated with pain. Growth of an OKC leads to expansion and destruction of bone as it infiltrates the tissue around it. It is commonly seen in males between the second and fourth decades of life. The aim of this study is to report on the clinicopathological characteristics of an odontogenic keratocyst in a 9-month-old female patient and posterior rehabilitation with a removable maxillary expander.

Odontogenic Keratocyst (OKC) is a non-inflammatory developmental odontogenic cyst arises from cell rest of the dental lamina and most commonly occurs in the posterior of the mandible. OKC may be detected in patients of various age groups, from infants to seniors, and usually occurs in the third and fourth decades of the patient’s life. Female to male prevalence is 2:1 respectively. Mandible makes up 60% to 80% of cases and shows a specific tendency to involve the ramus and posterior area. Detection of OKC through clinical exams and radiography is to be suspected, and thus, confirmation via histopathology is needed. This study describes the occurrence of this lesion in a rare location in a 36 years old female patient.

ABSTRACT Orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst (OOC) was first identified as the rare variant of keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) for its different histopathology and rare recurrence which was reclassified by WHO in 2005. The orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst is a distinct clinicopathologic entity and is histologically characterized by a thin, uniform, epithelial lining with orthokeratinization and a subjacent granular cell layer. The basal cells are usually cuboidal or flattened. OOC in maxilla is rare. This article presents a case of 56-years-old male patient with OOC in left maxilla. The clinical, radiographic and histological features of the cyst are discussed in this case report.

Aim: Odontogenic keratocysts are aggressive lesions characterised   by a high recurrence risk ratio due to dental lamina residues in mandibular and maxillary regions. Odontogenic keratocysts appear distinct from other jaw cysts. Methodology: In this report, a 35-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with numbness in the left mandible; the patient had also been admitted approximately 1 year previously complaining of paraesthesia, which subsequently progressed to complete numbness. During intraoral examination luxation was detected in the mandibular left second molar tooth. No carries or periodontal abnormalities were observed. In panoramic images a radiolucent lesion was detected, with regular boundaries, in the area of interest. Results: The mass was enucleated under local anaesthesia and second molar teeth were extracted. During histopathological examination the mass was determined as a keratocyst. Conclusions: In the present case, surgical treatment was performed.  How to cite this article: Koparal M, Adiguzel O.  Treatment of Odontogenic Keratocyst: A Case Report. Int Dent Res 2016;6:13-15.

Calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) or calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor was first introduced in 1962 by Gorlin et al., as a possible oral counterpart of calcifying epitheliomas of Malherbe in skin. This lesion is a rare odontogenic lesion with variable clinico-histological characteristics. Three different histologic subtypes has been reported for COC. In this study we presented a female patient diagnosed with ameloblastomatous COC a very rare variant of this lesion and challenges regarding microscopic diagnosis and treatment of it is discussed.

A radicular cyst is the most common odontogenic cyst that arises from the epithelial residues in the periodontal ligament due to periapical periodontitis following death and necrosis of the pulp. A fistula may form a cyst with a pulp infection that produces pus and seeks its way out to the gingival surface to create a canal. The purpose of this case report is to report the management of a patient with a chronically infected radicular cyst with fistula while retaining the involved tooth. A case report was a 13-year-old female patient who came to Department Oral Surgery of a hospital with a complaint of a lump in the front gum and palate that didn't heal for two years ago and often discharged pus. Intraoral examination showed a lump in the gingiva and palate with fistula in the interdental gingiva of teeth 11-12 with soft consistency and pain with palpation. Panoramic results showed characteristics of the radicular cyst at the 13-11 tooth region. The lesion is diagnosed as a chronic infection of a radicular cyst due to pulp necrosis in teeth 12-11 with interdental fistulas. Biopsy enucleation of the cyst was performed with teeth preservation. The patient was advised to have regular check-ups. On the sixth month of control, the surgical wound was good, without any complaints and signs of recurrence. The result is that a radicular cyst can become chronically infected and form a fistula that oozes pus into the oral cavity. The cyst can be treated with enucleation biopsy and fistulectomy with the preservation, without any recurrences.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the Odontogenic Keratocyst treatment through enucleation and cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen in a lesion that had previously been biopsied and also to compare the microscopic characteristic of the enucleated lesion to the biopsy microscopy. Enucleation was performed in a 27-year-old female patient with previously diagnosis by initial biopsy. The lesion extended from left mandibular body region to the ramus ipsilateral. The use of this technique proved to be an effective treatment. It is believed that the initial biopsies allowed a decrease in the size of the lesion and increase the thickness of the fibrous capsule, which prevent the rupture of the keratocyst capsule.
