Non syndromic unilateral dentigerous cyst in a 4-year-old child: A rare case report

Abstract: Dentigerous cyst is the most prevalent type of odontogenic cyst and is associated with crown of an unerupted or a developing tooth and accounts more than 24% of jaw cysts. Here, we present an interesting case of dentigerous cyst in a 4-year-old boy, which developed around an unerupted maxillary first premolar. Histological examination revealed a cyst with 1-2-cell-thick epithelial lining and presence of inflammatory cells in the connective tissue.

“…[110] Although, they are common developmental cyst, reported bilateral DC are quite rare. They have rarely been reported and are usually associated with developmental syndromes such as the Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome, cleidocranial dysplasia, Basal cell nevus syndrome and may sometimes be induced by drugs such as cyclosporine and calcium blocker.…”

En ocasiones puede estar asociado a odontomas o supernumerarios representando un 5% de todos los quistes dentígeros (13,14,15).…”

Algunos QD se desarrollan de forma excéntrica desde lateral del folículo, ocupando un área al lado de la corona y no encima de ella (9,11,12).…”

“…Un kyste dentigère ou un kyste folliculaire est un kyste odontogène lié à une anomalie de développement de l'organe dentaire, Ce sont les plus fréquents des kystes odontogènes et ils sont liés généralement aux couronnes des dents qui n'ont pas encore fait leur éruption [1]. La cavité du kyste est bordée par des cellules épithéliales dérivées de l'épithélium adamantin réduit pendant la formation de l'organe de l'émail.…”
