Inflammatory jaw cysts comprise a group of lesions that arise as a result of epithelial proliferation within an inflammatory focus due to a number of causes. Radicular cysts are the most common inflammatory cysts. These cysts are found most commonly at the apices of the involved teeth. These cysts are seldom very large and very rarely cross the midline. There has been a review for Odontogenic k...

background and aims. the aim of this study was to investigate the relative frequency of developmental odontogenic cysts in an iranian population. materials and methods. in this study 245 cysts from both jaws, treated in the faculty of dentistry at tabriz university of medical sciences during a 10-year period from 1998 to 2008, were analyzed in order to evaluate the incidence of such cysts. we h...

A case of basal cell naevus syndrome is presented. The jaw cysts were proved histopathologically to be odontogenic keratocysts. The multiple naevoid lesions on the skin were identified as basal cell carcinoma. Intracranial calcification is illustrated to a degree not previously reported in a case with this syndrome. The importance of identifying this syndrome is discussed and its presentation i...

Glandular Odontogenic Cyst is a relatively rare cyst of odontogenic origin, which shows glandular or salivary features that are thought to indicate the pluripotentiality of odontogenic epithelium. It is seen in middle-aged adults, and commonly involves the anterior region of the jaws, especially the mandible. It shows non-specific clinico-radiographic findings which may resemble other lesions, ...

Objectives: Cysts seen in the jaws may be odontogenic or non-odontogenic, depending on tissue of origin. Although there are different methods to diagnose these lesions, histopathological examination biopsy lesion is accepted as 'gold standard' cases where diagnosis insufficient. insufficient.

Relevance: Odontogenic jaw cysts of inflammatory genesis in children are a cavity formation the bone tissue with predominantly asymptomatic course. This clinical and radiological picture may be characteristic number different pathologies, which poses clinician task conducting thorough differential diagnosis. The purpose study: To perform retrospective analysis histological examination protocols...

Light and electron microscopy were used to analyze the epithelial lining of odontogenic cysts excised from edentulous regions of the jaws. Clinically, three cases were identified as keratocysts, and 21 cases as cysts other than keratocysts ("non-keratocysts"). The epithelium of the former was found to achieve keratinization over most of the surface and to never contain mucus secreting cells. Th...

Odontogenic cysts of the jaws are one most common tumour-like neoplasms maxillofacial region in children. Today, there various methods treating cysts, but childhood, problem choosing a treatment method is relevant and at same time difficult, as some authors prefer cystectomy, while others cystotomy. Purpose - to analyze management jaw children depending on type cyst. Materials methods. A retros...
