“…In our study, enucleation showed a 9.1% recurrence rate, which is somewhat lower than in similar studies (12,19,21). Marsupialization resulted in a 41.7% recurrence rate, which is similar to the findings reported by some researcher (6,22).…”

“…The first description of OKC was published in 1956 by Philipsen (2)(3)(4). It has long been of particular interest because of its potential for locally destructive behavior, its recurrence rate, and its tendency for multiplicity, particularly its current treatment modalities (5,6). The role of mutation of the PTCH gene in the etiology of KCOTs resulted in reclassification of this lesion as a neoplasm in the WHO classification of head and neck tumors in 2005 and its renaming as KCOT (5).…”

Aim: The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinicopathological features of 64 patients with keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT). Materials and Methods:The patients ranged in age at the time of diagnosis from 8 to 74 years (mean: 38.20 ± 16.71). Postoperative follow-up period was 3-8 years (mean time 4.76 ± 1.10). This research was carried out on panoramic radiographs and histopathological samples. Data such as gender, age, treatment methods, location of the tumor, presence of impacted teeth and its histological features were subjected to descriptive statistical analyses with the statistical software program. Results:Of the 64 analyzed cases of KCOT, 68.8% of them were men and 31.2% were females (male-to-female ratio was 2.2:1). It was observed that KCOT peaked in the third and fifth decade of life (23.4%-20.3%). The incidence of KCOT was higher in the mandible than in the maxilla (76.6%-23.4%). There was recurrence in nine out of 64 subjects (14.1%) in the follow-up period. The recurrence was more often found in posterior mandible. It is noteworthy that in 9 recurrent subjects, 7 lesions were parakeratotic and 4 lesions were associated with daughter cysts. Conclusion:Although there are several studies about KCOT in the literature, the choice of treatment modalities remains controversial. In recurrent subjects, more aggressive therapy approaches should be considered. Periodic controls and aggressive treatment approaches may be effective in the prevention of recurrences. (%23.4-%20.3).

Keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) is a benign odontogenic tumor with a potentially aggressive and infiltrative behavior. In this article, we report a 22-year-old male patient with swelling over the right side of cheek and over the palate on the same side and orbital pain since two months. Medical history of the patient was not significant. Computed tomography scan showed a well-defined cystic mass occupying anterior and superior wall of maxilla from premolar region to the incisor region of opposite side and destruction of palate and inferior orbital wall. Cyst was excised via lateral rhinotomy incision completely with intact wall. Histopathological examination showed features of KCOT. Keratocystic odontogenic tumor is well-known for its tendency to recur, potential aggressive behavior, and defined histopathological feature. Keratocystic odontogenic tumor occurrence in the maxilla is unusual and its appearance in the maxillary sinus is very rare.

The reported frequency of satellite cysts in odontogenic keratocysts may range from seven percent to 33.3 percent (5,13,15,16) while epithelial rests were found in 13.5 percent to 60.0 percent of odontogenic keratocysts (4,6,13 both these structures are regarded as indications of the proliferative capacity of the lining epithelium and a higher frequency of these structures had been reported in odontogenic keratocysts associated with basal cell naevus syndrome (19).…”

This paper represents a study of 35 cases of odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) diagnosed in a Malaysian population. The clinical, radiological and histopathological features, treatment modalities and recurrence of this lesion were analysed. There was a higher prevalence rate among Malaysian Chinese (51.42 percent), while the Malays and Indians accounted for 22.86 percent and 25.72 percent respectively. The male to female ratio was 16 : 19. Age at presentation ranged from nine to 71 year, with about 70 percent occurring between ages ten to 39 years. A total of 40 cysts were analysed. Of these, 67.5 percent occurred in the mandible and 32.5 percent in the maxilla. About 88 percent of OKC presented as unilocular radiolucencies and 42.0 percent were associated with unerupted or impacted teeth. Histologically, the parakeratinized OKC was the predominant variant found (75.8 percent). The majority of cases were treated by enucleation (85 percent), and a recurrence rate of 20 percent was recorded.
