Dentigerous cyst is a type of odontogenic cysts occurs in the ages of twenties or thirties and rarely occurs in the first decade of life with male predominance.  In this report, a case of a large dentigerous cyst in 34 years old female patient   complaining from progressive painful swelling of the right cheek for a month duration. CT scan of the paranasal sinuses showed a well-defined solitary expansile right maxillary cystic mass eroding the antero-lateral maxilla, with a crown of a tooth projecting inside the cystic cavity.  The dentigerous cyst totally enucleated through sublabial incision in combination with nasal endoscopic approach. The unerupted tooth removed from inside the right maxillary antrum. Follow-up at 2 weeks showed no abnormality at the surgical site and no any paresthesia.

Branchial cleft cysts are congenital anomalies that most commonly arise from a failure of fusion of the second branchial arch during embryonic life. They usually present as a swelling in the lateral side of the neck, below the mandible. In this article, we present a case of a 28-year-old female patient with a right branchial cyst measuring 7 × 6 × 5 cm, who presented with an asymptomatic, rapidly growing mass in the right anterior triangle of the neck that abutted the right external carotid artery, leading to stenosis of the vessel that is preceded by dilatation above the site of compression. She underwent excision of the cystic mass with preservation of the facial nerve and presented no active complaints on follow-up a few weeks postoperatively.

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.

Dentigerous cysts are the second most common odontogenic cysts of the mandible. They may vary in size from 2 cm to more than 10 cm. In the present report, a dentigerous cyst with massive involvement of the right half of the mandible in a young patient is presented. For cosmetic reasons and long term risks these cysts must be treated. Surgical removal is the preferred modality and a submandibular route should be chosen in large lesions. Bony cavities may be decreased in volume by using osteoperiosteal flaps, but there is no need for primary bone grafting, even for large defects.

Dentigerous cysts represent the second most common odontogenic cysts of the jaws after radicular cysts and are usually associated with the crowns of unerupted permanent teeth and rarely deciduous teeth. They are usually solitary in their presentation. Multiple and bilateral dentigerous cysts are an extremely rare presentation in the absence of developmental syndromes or systemic diseases or the use of prescribed certain medications. We hereby present a case of a bilateral dentigerous cyst of the maxilla in a 10-year-old child involving the crowns of unerupted permanent second premolar on the right side and the unerupted permanent canine on the left side. An effort has also been made to review the existing literature on this entity and to stress the importance of radiographic and histopathological examinations in diagnosing such an entity.

Dentigerous cysts are the second most common odontogenic cysts of the jaws, and sometimes inhibit the eruption of teeth. Almost all of the dentigerous cyst encloses the crown of an unerupted tooth and the radiolucent area is attached to the tooth at the cementoenamel junction. Dentigerous cyst is more common in male patients and most commonly develop in the second and third decades of life. Clinically, a localized swelling of the alveolar bone can be detected, however, dentigerous cysts can be asymptomatic during a long period of time, leading to a significant destruction of bone. The conventional treatment plan is cyst removal and marsupialization. Marsupialization therapy can be useful to promote the spontaneous eruption of the involved tooth within the cyst. However, tooth eruption does not always occur spontaneously after marsupialization. This article aims to report a clinical case of the diagnosis and treatment of a dentigerous cyst in the maxilla associated with an unerupted canine in a pediatric patient and discussion of the treatment performed.

ABSTRACT Dentigerous cyst is the most frequent developmental odontogenic cysts. It forms in relation to unerupted teeth, decidous teeth or supernumerary tooth as seen in our case. It is common in younger individuals in lower jaw involving mostly the third molar region. Here, we report a case of 25 years old female with a large dentigerous cyst of right maxilla who presented with complete unilateral nasal obstruction. Radiologically, a supernumerary tooth was seen located superiorly in the medial wall of the maxillary antrum. The cyst was surgically removed through a gingivobuccal sulcus incision. Although, Weber Fergusson incision is generally required for removal of large cysts, sublabial or Caldwell-Luc approach is equally useful for large cyst removal and is also more cosmetically acceptable.

Abstract Supratentorial extraventricular anaplastic ependymoma (SEAE) in adults is a relatively rare intracranial tumor. Because of very low prevalence, SEAE has been reported only a few cases. According to a recent study, SEAE is associated with a poor prognosis and there is no definite consensus of optimal treatment. We report a case of an adult SEAE patient who had no recurrence until seven years after gross total resection(GTR) followed by conventional radiotherapy. A 42- year- old male had a persistent mild headache, left facial palsy, and dysarthria. Preoperative neuroimaging revealed an anaplastic astrocytoma or supratentorial ependymoma in the right frontal lobe. A GTR was performed, followed by adjuvant radiotherapy. Histologic and immunohistochemical results revealed anaplastic ependymoma, After seven years of initial therapy, a regular follow-up MRI showed a 3-cm –sized partially cystic mass in the same area as the initial tumor. The patient underwent a craniotomy, and a GTR was performed. Histopathologic examination revealed recurrence of the SEAE. External radiotherapy was performed. The patient has been stable without any disease progression or complications for 12 months since the surgery for recurrent SEAE

ABSTRACTDentigerous cyst is a type of odontogenic cysts and generally occurs in the ages of twenties or thirties. Dentigerous cyst always includes a tooth which cannot complete the eruption process and occurs around the crown by the fluid accumulation between the layers of enamel organ. In rare cases, dentigerous cyst occurs in the first decade of life and develops in an immature permanent tooth as a result of a chronic inflammation of overlying nonvital primary tooth. In this report, a case of dentigerous cyst in primary dentition in a 5-year-old child patient and its treatment were presented. The dentigerous cyst was totally enucleated, and the unerupted permanent first premolar tooth was removed from the primary mandibular right premolar region. There was no recurrence observed after 18 months follow-up.

The authors report the case of a 15-year-old girl with a third ventricle colloid cyst. She presented with prolonged headache, nausea, vomiting, and loss of visual acuity with bilateral papilledema. Computed tomography and MRI revealed severe biventricular hydrocephalus with transependymal periventricular fluid and a minimally enhancing cystic mass of the third ventricle. The patient was diagnosed with a colloid cyst and obstructive hydrocephalus, and endoscopic resection with ablation of the cyst remnant was performed. While attempting to extricate the cyst from the patient's head, control of the cyst was lost and the cyst fell into the lateral ventricle beyond the surgeon's view. Postoperative imaging showed that the cyst had settled in the right occipital horn. After 3 years of follow-up, imaging suggests growth of the cyst in its new position without necrosis or displacement on prone imaging.
