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.

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.

Introduction: Dentigerous cyst is a pathological epithelial cavity that surrounds an unerupted tooth crown. Dentigerous cysts are usually associated with impacted teeth, mandibular third molars, first and second premolars and canines. Dentigerous cysts can occur at any age, but most cases of these cysts occur at the age of approximately 20 years. Men are affected more often than women. Purpose.To find out how the mechanism of dentigerous cysts. The cyst cavity is lined with epithelial cells derived from the epithelial enamel that is reduced from the tooth-forming organs. According to its pathogenesis, the pressure exerted by an erupted tooth on the follicle can block venous flow leading to accumulation of exudate between the reduced enamel epithelium and the crown of the tooth. These cysts are mostly due to fluid accumulation either between the reduced enamel epithelium and the enamel or between the layers of the enamel organ. This fluid accumulation occurs as a result of the pressure exerted by the erupting tooth on the affected follicle, which blocks venous flow, thus inducing rapid transudation of serum in the capillary walls. Discussion: The expansion of the dentigerous cyst causes the release of bone resorbing factor and an increase in the osmolarity of the cyst fluid as a result of the discharge of inflammatory cells, the discharge of residual epithelial enamel and tooth enamel, and desquamation of epithelial cells into the lumen of the cyst. In theory, the fluid will cause cystic proliferation. because the hyperosmolar content produced by cellular breakdown and cell products causes an osmotic gradient to pump fluid into the lumen of the cyst or it can also be said that an increase in the osmolarity of cyst fluid is the result of a shortcut to inflammatory cells and desquamation of epithelial cells into the lumen of the cyst resulting in a dentigerous cyst. Conclusion: The dentigerous cysts that surround the unerupted dental crowns are caused by the accumulation of fluid either between the reduced enamel epithelium or between the layers of the enamel organs. Dentigerous cysts can cause infection, pain, swelling, root dislocation, and resorption of adjacent tooth roots.

Background: Extrusion, lateral luxation, and intrusion are among the most serious types of dental trauma. Only a few studies have specifically focused on extrusion; the present one was aimed at reporting a case of domestic traumatic dental injury to primary tooth and describing the measures taken in managing the trauma in order to avoid future consequences to the underlying permanent tooth germ. Case report: A 3.5-year-old boy reported a dental injury with extrusion and root fracture of deciduous tooth 5.1. After intraoral and radiographic evaluation, the element was repositioned and stabilized by an orthodontic flexible splint attached to the adjacent teeth. Several follow-up checkups were made and showed good healing of the tissues and physiological exfoliation of the tooth, with a healthy and unaffected corresponding central permanent incisor. Conclusion: This case report strengthens the importance of well-timed diagnosis and treatment and of regular follow-up of traumatized teeth as they may affect both dentitions with a negative impact on Oral Health-Related Quality of Life. Conservative treatment should be taken into consideration when possible, being in some cases more appropriate.

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.

Introduction: Many studies have indicated that Forkhead Box C1 (FOXC1) is highly expressed in a various malignant neoplasms and its over expression is associated with tumour development, progression and metastasis. However, the role of FOXC1 in odontogenic lesions remains to be elucidated. Aim: This study aimed to investigate FOXC1 expression in selective Odontogenic Cysts (OC) and Odontogenic Tumours (OT). Materials and Methods: A descriptive study on OC and OT was performed on oral biopsy specimens at Faculty of Dentistry, Naresuan University, Phitsanulok, Thailand, between January 2009 and December 2016. Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mouse were used as study animal. Immunohistochemical reaction was performed using antibody against FOXC1 in 23 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues of eight Ameloblastoma (AM), one Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumour (AOT), seven Odontogenic Keratocyst (OKC), five Dentigerous Cyst (DC), two Calcifying Odontogenic Cyst (COC) and three mouse embryonic head at Embryonic Day (E)14. The expression level of FOXC1 was evaluated using semi-quantitative analysis. Results: Immunoreactivity of FOXC1 was not detected in the epithelial lining of OKC, DC and COC but it was identified in the epithelial compartment of AM and AOT. Overall, semi-quantitative analysis demonstrated moderate staining of FOXC1 and staining score was 4.13 in AM and 5 in AOT. In addition, FOXC1 was not detected in normal tooth bud of mouse including both enamel organ and condensing ectomesenchyme. Conclusion: Expression of FOXC1 may contribute in tumouriogenesis of OT whereas it is may not be related with normal odontogenesis.

Dentigerous cysts are the benign odontogenic cysts that surround the crown of an unerupted or impacted tooth and they account for approximately 20-24% of the jaw cysts. Dentigerous cysts involving impacted second premolars are rare. Here we report a case of surgical enucleation of an inflammatory type of dentigerous cyst associated with the impacted mandibular second premolar in a 12-year-old child. Nine-months follow up showed satisfactory healing of the defect with remarkable bone formation.

AimsTo describe a large tertiary care academic centre’s experience with patients who achieve a complete pathological response (ie, ypT0N0) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and radical cystectomy (RC) with emphasis on morphological features present in the RC and clinical outcome.Methods41 patients with ypT0N0 disease following transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT), NAC and RC with available clinical follow-up information were analysed. Slides from all RCs were reviewed to confirm pathological stage and assess for morphological parameters (eg, foreign body giant cell reaction, dystrophic calcification, scar and fat necrosis).ResultsWith median follow-up of 32.8 months, the recurrence-free survival at 1 and 5 years was 97.4% and 93.5%, while the overall survival at 3 and 5 years was 94.2% and 88.6%, respectively. No patients died of urothelial carcinoma. Stage assigned at TURBT was 1 pTa (2%), 1 pT1 (2%), 38 pT2 (93%) and 1 pT3a (2%). 17 TURBTs demonstrated variant histology, with the majority of these being squamous (65%). The most common morphological features present at RC were scar (100%), foreign body giant cell reaction (80%), chronic inflammation within lamina propria (68%) and dystrophic calcifications (39%). Other morphological features were less common or absent.ConclusionypT0N0 disease at RC portends an excellent prognosis, regardless of stage or variant histology in the TURBT; scar, foreign body giant cell reaction, chronic inflammation and dystrophic calcifications are often present.

The ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is a mixed odontogenic tumor, with characteristics of ameloblastic fibroma, presenting enamel and dentin, which occurs more frequently in individuals aged 5 to 17 years. This paper reports na extensive case of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma in the mandible of a 3-year-old patient, discussed in comparison to cases selected from a brief literature review on the clinical characteristics, Evolution and therapeutic options for this lesion. In the last years, there was no consensus in the literature concerning its etiopathogenesis and classification, yet recently the AFO was classified as a developing odontoma. This case is in accordance with the 7 cases reported in the literature of AFO in the mandible of children aged 10 years or younger, especially concerning the lesion pattern and evolution and treatment adopted. The patient did not present relapse and exhibited local bone regeneration at the 3-year follow-up.
