Radicular cyst or Odontogenic keratocyst ? : A case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 keratocyst that it may grow to a very large size before it manifests clinically. Large size of OKC contributes to one of the reasons for considering it as a cystic neoplasm. In the present case, size of the cyst was enormous which was confusing which on histological examination was confirmed as a radicular cyst.

Background & Aims: Odontogenic cysts are derived from odontogenic epithelium and lined by odontogenic epithelium .All three odontogenic cysts (Dentigerous cyst,Odontogenic keratocyst cyst and Radicular cyst)can develop tumoral transformation .The least tumoral transformation rate is related to OKC.Epithelial cell proliferation rate is important in the prognosis .The best marker is HER2/neu.

متن کاملComparison of TNF-α and TGF-β1 level in radicular cyst and odontogenic keratocyst fluid and its association with histopathological findings
Background: TNF-α is a multifunctional proinflammatory cytokine and TGF-β1 is a secretory protein controlling epithelial proliferation and differentiation. Keratocyst presents an aggressive behavior and a growth mechanism different from that of radicular cyst. Aim: In this line, the present study aimed at evaluating TNF-α and TGF-β1 level and its association with histopath...
متن کاملQuantitation of lactoferrin in odontogenic cyst fluids.
A competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method was used to measure the concentration of lactoferrin in fluids from 36 odontogenic keratocysts, 15 dentigerous cysts, and 30 radicular/residual cysts. Keratocyst fluids contained significantly higher concentrations of lactoferrin than fluids from the other two types of cyst (p less than 0.001); but the range of values obtained withi...
متن کاملInvestigating the Presence of Mast Cells in Odontogenic keratocyst and Radicular cyst
Background and purpose: Inflammatory cells including mast cells, with the production of inflammatory mediators such as heparin and histamine participate in the process of inflammation and jaw resorption. Considering the increasing growth of cysts and the role of mast cells in the process of bone resorption, the role of mast cells might be considered in pathogenesis and growth of cysts. The aim ...

Abstract BACKGROUNackground and aimD & AIM: Keratinized odontogenic cyst is a developmental odontogenic cyst that is mainly due to dental lamina. This cyst has the nature of local invasion and high recurrence. There are several therapeutic measures to control the recurrence of this cyst in studies. One of the conservative approaches is to use an enucleation followed by decompression techn...
