“…16,17 Marsupialization or decompression is a technique that attempts to relieve intracystic pressure through the creation of an accessory cavity. 5 This technique was selected in our case since it is a comparatively conservative intervention and allows the smooth eruption of developing permanent tooth. The choice seemed to be more sensible considering the proximity of the lesions to the buds of developing permanent teeth.…”

“…If the cyst reaches a large size (>2 cm in diameter), swelling, mild sensitivity, tooth mobility and displacement may be observed. 5 Though dentigerous cysts are benign odontogenic cysts associated with crowns of permanent teeth, some cases of these cysts being associated with deciduous teeth, and supernumerary teeth have also been reported. 6 Radiographically these cysts appear in close approximation to the crowns of unerupted teeth as welldefined unilocular pericoronal radiolucencies with wellcorticated sclerotic margins, unless secondarily infected.…”

Dentigerous cysts are the most common developmental odontogenic cysts of the jaw, arising from impacted, embedded or unerupted permanent teeth. They apparently develop by accumulation of fluid between the reduced enamel epithelium and the tooth crown of an unerupted tooth. There is usually no pain or discomfort associated with the cyst unless there is an acute inflammatory exacerbation. Careful evaluation, coupled with meticulous clinical and radiological investigations could help clinicians to arrive at the correct diagnosis as well as address the implicated etiologies, before instituting the most appropriate therapy. Here, we report a case of a dentigerous cyst in the mixed dentition of a 10-year-old female patient and outline its comprehensive management for the benefit of pediatric and general dentists involved in the care of such patients.

“…Surgery is the treatment of choice for a periorbital cyst. Either marsupialisation or enucleation is performed, depending on various factors-the size of the cyst, its status(unilocular or multilocular), and anatomical structures that are adjacent to the cysts [1,6].Computed tomography (CT) is one of the useful modalities for evaluating lesions in the human orofacial area [1]. However, to our knowledge, CT imaging of canine orofacial cysts has not yet been reported.…”

ABSTRACT. A 4-year-old female Miniature Dachshund was referred with a chief complaint of right periorbital swelling that had not responded to antibiotic therapy. Ultrasonography and fine-needle aspiration revealed that the periorbital lesion had a cystic structure without any inflammatory or neoplastic cells. Computed tomography (CT) showed that the cyst occupied a defect in the periorbital maxillary, lacrimal, and frontal bones and had invaded the nasal cavity. The lesion was histologically suspected by incisional biopsy as an epithelial cyst. KEY WORDS: canine, computed tomography, periorbital cyst.J. Vet. Med. Sci. 68 (7): [747][748] 2006 A few reports have described cystic lesions around the eye or in the maxilla [2][3][4][5]. Surgery is the treatment of choice for a periorbital cyst. Either marsupialisation or enucleation is performed, depending on various factors-the size of the cyst, its status(unilocular or multilocular), and anatomical structures that are adjacent to the cysts [1,6].Computed tomography (CT) is one of the useful modalities for evaluating lesions in the human orofacial area [1]. However, to our knowledge, CT imaging of canine orofacial cysts has not yet been reported. Therefore, in the present case, we utilized CT imaging to identify the morphological characterization of the cyst.A 4-year-old, female Miniature Dachshund was referred to the Animal Medical Center of Nihon University with a chief complaint of right periorbital swelling. A swelling of the medial lower lid of the right eye had been observed for 2 months. An ophthalmic examination, including a fluorescein dye passage test, no abnormalities. The swelling had recurred despite antibiotic therapy and intermittent fine needle aspiration of the periorbital cyst.On physical examination, a fluctuant swelling with a diameter of 2 cm was palpated in the medial canthus and medial lower lid of the right eye. Ultrasonography revealed that the swelling had an echolucent cystic structure. Sterile serosanguineous fluid was derived from the cyst by fineneedle aspiration. Cytological examination did not provide any evidence for a significant inflammatory process or neoplastic cell infiltration. CT was designed to clarify the morphological structure of the cyst.Under general anesthesia, CT was performed by CT-W450-10A (Hitach Medical Co., Tokyo) with the following scan parameters: 50 mA, 120 kVp, 4.5 s scan, 2-mm continuous slices, and 512 × 512 matrix size. CT imaging revealed a circumscribed and smooth cystic structure (Fig. 1). The cyst had expanded primarily within the right orbital region, invading the nasal cavity and cribriform plate. A periosteal reaction was not observed around the lesion, and the internasal septum, palatine bone, and teeth that were adjacent to the cyst were intact.

Dentigerous cysts are generally associated with the crowns of impacted or unerupted permanent teeth and are more common in males, in the second and third decades of life. Most dentigerous cysts are mainly developmental in origin but may not be similar for all cases. The purpose of this paper is to present a case of dentigerous cyst with unusual presentation in a 7 year old girl and discuss the variation in etiology, presentation of such a cyst and in its management.
