“…It is linked with mutation in the PTCH gene. Partial expression of the gene may result in occurrence of only multiple-recurring OKC Our patient presented with nine cysts with multiple recurrences over a period of 11 years without any other manifestation of the syndrome Borgonovo et al [56] Case report…”

“…Marsupialization is a surgical technique by which a window is produced in the wall of the cyst to relieve the intra-cystic pressure and so enable the cavity to decrease slowly in size, then complete enucleation will be performed as a second-stage procedure to reduce recurrence rate (22). To date, a large amount of literature has proved that marsupialization is an effective method for treating large odontogenic cysts (23)(24)(25). However, this period ranges from 6 to 14 months on average, which seems too long because of the limited osteogenic capacity of jaw (26).…”

“…In fact the recurrence rate of KOT in different studies varies in a wide range from 0 to 100 % that is related to the number of evaluated cases, various follow-up periods and different treatment techniques [14][15][16]. KOT associated with the nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome compared to non-syndromic lesions are usually more extensive in size and numbers and occur in younger ages [7]. Also recurrence rate in KOTs associated with the nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome is much higher than non-related syndrome lesions, in which the reported recurrence rate is about 82 % [17].…”

“…KOT is one of the most common complications of Gorlin's syndrome that is found at least in 75 % of patients [6]. Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome associated KOTs in comparison with nonsyndromic KOTs are usually more extensive and more numerous and recognized in younger ages [7]. Considering the extension of syndromic lesions, emotional status of children, growth of jaws and involvement of permanent tooth buds, choosing the most appropriate treatment is so challenging.…”
