The effectiveness of decompression for patients with dentigerous cysts, keratocystic odontogenic tumors, and unicystic ameloblastoma
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to verify the clinical effectiveness of decompression in decreasing the size of a cyst. In addition to the different types of cysts, we tried to reveal what effect host factors, such as the initial size of the lesion and the age of the patient, have on the velocity of cyst shrinkage. MATERIALS AND METHODS With the aid of a panoramic view, we measured the s...
متن کاملCD166 expression in dentigerous cyst, keratocystic odontogenic tumor and ameloblastoma
BACKGROUND CD166 is a glycoprotein of an immunoglobulin super family of adhesion molecules that has been associated with aggressive characteristics and high recurrence rate of tumors. Different odontogenic lesions exhibit considerable histological variation and different clinical behavior. In an attempt to clarify the mechanisms underlying this different behavior, the present study investigates...
متن کاملUnicystic Ameloblastoma as a Differential Diagnosis for Odontogenic Cysts
Unicystic ameloblastoma (UA) is a variant of the solid or multicystic ameloblastoma. Radiographically, though the unilocular appearance is common, it can produce multilocular lesions also. Histologically, the minimum criterion for diagnosing a lesion as UA is the demonstration of a single cystic sac lined by ameloblastomatous epithelium often only in focal areas with or without areas of intralu...
متن کاملp53 and PCNA Expression in Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumors Compared with Selected Odontogenic Cysts
p53 and PCNA expression in keratocystic odontogenic tumors compared with selected odontogenic cysts Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate p53 and PCNA expression in different odontogenic lesions regarding their different clinical behaviors. Slices prepared from 94 paraffin-embedded tissue blocks (25 radicular cysts (RC), 23 dentigerous cysts (DC), 23 keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KC...
متن کاملDiffusion-Weighted MR Imaging of Unicystic Odontogenic Tumors for Differentiation of Unicystic Ameloblastomas from Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumors
Objective Differentiating unicystic ameloblastomas from keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KCOT) is necessary for the planning of different treatment strategies; however, it is difficult based on conventional CT and MR sequences alone. The purpose of this study was to investigate the utility of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) in the differentiation of t...
