“…In this retrospective study based on pathology material, the demographic and clinical features of 5294 jaw cysts are described. In Table 5, the results of the present study are compared to those of previous ones with a sample of at least 1000 patients [2,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. It should be noted that the sample size of the present study is the 3rd largest in the literature following Daley's et al [17] and Jones' and Franklin's [2] investigations.…”

The aim of the present study is to report the demographic and clinical characteristics of all jaw cysts diagnosed in a single Oral Pathology Department. 5294 cases of jaw cysts diagnosed during a 38-year period were retrospectively collected and classified according to the latest classification of Head and Neck Tumors of the World Health Organization. The patients' gender and age, as well as the main clinical features of the cysts were retrieved from biopsy report forms. Jaw cysts were more common in male patients, with a male to female ratio of 1.6:1. Most patients were in the 4th-6th decade of life, with a mean age of 42.3 ± 16.1 years. There was no jaw predilection and the majority of lesions were more commonly encountered in the anterior region of the maxilla, followed by the molar region of the mandible. The most common jaw cyst was radicular cyst followed by dentigerous cyst, residual cyst and odontogenic keratocyst. The majority of jaw cysts are of inflammatory origin and represent a sequale of pulp necrosis. However, other type of jaw cysts may also be found.

“…It means that despite the number of referred patients to this center, cases with smaller cysts which can be treated under local anesthesia would not be admitted to this hospital. In similar studies performed on the Iranian population ( 16 - 18 ) the radicular cyst was the most common odontogenic cyst whilst the dentigerous cyst was the most frequent developmental one. Based on these results, it is concluded that OKC is in the third level and is very frequent among Iranians.…”

Background:Early diagnosis of odontogenic cysts due to their silent progression is always a challenging problem for clinicians.Objectives:The current study aimed to evaluate the frequency of odontogenic cysts and related factors in a selected Iranian population.Patients and Methods:The current cross-sectional study was conducted on 312 patients’ recorded data in Taleghani Hospital, Tehran, Iran, from April 1993 to December 2013. All related data were extracted from the records and categorized in tables. The correlation between the variables was analyzed by either chi-square or multinominal logistic regression tests. The P values < 0.05 were considered significant.Results:Evaluation of 312 patients’ records (185 males and 127 females) with the mean age of 27.6 showed that Odontogenic Keratocyst (OKC) was the most common odontogenic cyst of all followed by the dentigerous cyst as the second most common lesion. Most of the patients were in the second or third decades of their lives, although there was no statistically significant age distribution. The finding of the current study showed that calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) occurrence was significantly related to the history of trauma. Enucleation and curettage of the odontogenic cysts were the most common treatment plans of all.Conclusions:The current study showed that clinicians should consider the many factors associated with the occurrence of odontogenic cysts.

“…Of all odontogenic cysts, OKC represents about 6 to 25.7% and appears to be more frequent in males with a peak incidence of 20-30 years of age. This lesion deserves differential considerations due to its clinical presentation, since it presents invasive-infiltrative growth, expanding in great proportions, causing considerable bone destruction usually before any symptoms (5,8,(17)(18)(19).…”

Background: Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is an odontogenic developmental cyst that presents distinct clinical behavior. This lesion has been described as dental cysts with keratinization since the 1930s, however the term "OKC" was established in 1956. This study aims to determine the frequency and features of OKC in children aged 0 to 14 years in an oral pathology service in Brazil. Material and Methods: A retrospective study was performed to review cases of OKC in children diagnosed between 1986 and 2017. Clinical data were evaluated from medical records (gender, race, age, anatomical location, treatment, radiographic findings and follow-up). Results: Ninety-seven cases of OKC were diagnosed in a 31-year-period in all age groups and 10 were found in children (10.3%). Age ranged from 2 to 14 years (mean age=10.5±3.5), with 8 males and 2 females. The most frequent location was the anterior region of the mandible (n=4). Patients were predominantly asymptomatic. Moreover, in two children, clinical findings of Gorlin-Goltz Syndrome were observed. The most commonly used treatment was enucleation followed by curettage. In all cases of Gorlin-Goltz Syndrome were observed recurrences and occurrence of new keratocysts. Conclusion: Although uncommon in pediatric patients, OKC should be considered a differential diagnosis in cases of osteolytic lesions in gnathic bones. Thus, the periodic assessment of children by dentists and pediatricians is essential to get a correct diagnosis and early treatment to avoid greater mutilation of these patients.
