Odontogenic keratocyst is a developmental odontogenic cyst that usually diagnosed in routine radiographs the early stages. This fact increases dentist’s responsibility for its diagnosis, and professional should pay attention to all maxillomandibular complex not only teeth. There no standard protocol treatment of keratocyst. However, surgical resection recommended because high recurrence rate, e...

Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a common developmental odontogenic cyst affecting the maxillofacial region. Multiple OKCs are usually seen in association with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) but approximately 5% of patients with OKC have multiple cysts without concomitant syndromic presentation. This report represents a case of multiple OKCs in a non-syndromic patient.

Background: Odontogenic keratocyst is relatively common developmental odontogenic lesion occurring with a frequency of approximately 10-14% all jaw cyst. Aim: To find the clinic-radiologic pattern cases. Study design: Descriptive cross sectional.

We present a case of an odontogenic keratocyst discovered as incidental finding in the anterior mandible young female patient. This is unusual presentation, and very few cases affecting are reported literature.

Investigations into the possibility that X (an antigen consistently present in aspirated odontogenic keratocysts, but not in most fluids from other cyst types), represented a keratinocyte component failed to identify the antigen as a keratin, involucrin, or one of the blood group substances. Antigen X was detected in human mixed and parotid saliva and in colostrum, as well as in a commercially ...

background: odontogenic keratocyst (okc), also called keratocystic odontogenic tumor (kcot), is a developmental lesion which should be carefully monitored and it exhibits development mechanisms and biologic behaviors different from those of other more common lesions such as dentigerous and radicular cysts. cd10 antigen is a cell surface metalloendopeptidase, which inactivates various peptides t...
