“…Histologically, GOC is characterized by a non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelial lining with papillary projections, focal plaque like thickenings within the lining, microcysts or intraepithelial crypts containing mucin, 'mucous lakes' and hyaline bodies. It also includes cuboidal basal cells, sometimes vacuolated and absence of inflammation in the subepithelial connective tissue [12,13]. The relative rarity of this lesion is the reason behind presentation of this case.…”

International Journal of Case Reports and Images (IJCRI) is an international, peer reviewed, monthly, open access, online journal, publishing high-quality, articles in all areas of basic medical sciences and clinical specialties.Aim of IJCRI is to encourage the publication of new information by providing a platform for reporting of unique, unusual and rare cases which enhance understanding of disease process, its diagnosis, management and clinico-pathologic correlations. GOC is found to occur in fifth decade of life and the most common site of occurrence is mandible, especially the mandibular anterior region with slight predilection for males. However, its occurrence in the maxillary posterior region of a 23-year-old female with associated symptoms of pain is quite rare. Case Report: This case report presents one such rare case of GOC in right maxillary region of a 23-year-old female who was primarily diagnosed as a radicular cyst. Later, due to recurrence of the lesion, patient had to undergo enucleation and partial resection of posterior maxilla, and after a comprehensive histopathological analysis, it was finally diagnosed as GOC. Conclusion:In conclusion, Glandular odontogenic cyst being such a rare entity, this paper may enhance the existing knowledge about GOC and may guide readers and clinicians to pay special attention to similar cases when encountered in clinical work.

“…Glandular Odontogenic Cyst is a rare lesion, of considerable aggressive behavior, originated at the areas of dental support [1][2][3][4][5] . Clinically, the most affected site is the anterior part of the mandible and it mostly occurs in middle-aged patients with a slight male prevalence 2,[4][5][6][7][8] .…”

“…It was associated with bleeding gums and foul smelling discharge. Panoramic view radiograph showed a well defined radiolucency, with irregular margins in the mandible [ DisCussion GOC is a rare lesion with prevalence ranging from 0.012 to 1.3% of all jaw cysts [1]. In 1987, Padayachee and Van Wyk described two cystic lesions with histologic features that did not fit into the known classification of cysts, who called "sialo-odontogenic cyst" [2].…”

“…Usually it presents as a painless lesion, but can be painful if neurovascular bundles are compressed or infected secondarily. Most authors agree that there are no radiographic features specific of GOC [1]. Therefore, histopatholgy is essential for diagnosis.…”
