“…Moreover, left undiagnosed or untreated, OKCs may result in substantial bone loss and subsequent pathologic fractures. 4 , 12 Notwithstanding its importance, dental screening for GGS has received scant attention in the analytic literature.…”

“…Syndromic OKC only about 5% of all OKC cases. 45 Multiple OKCs in children need to be considered for association with nevoid basal carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS). This syndrome is genetically inherited with various expressions, such as multiple nevoid basal cell carcinomas, odontogenic keratocysts, congenital skeletal defects, ectopic calcifications, plantar and palmar pits, central nervous system and ocular lesions, and hypertelorism.…”

“…5,46 Patients with NBCSS are usually younger, under 20 years with a median age of 15 years when diagnosed with OKC. 45,47 The most common location of OKC was in the mandibular posterior region as shown in Figure 3. This is in accordance with the findings by Bhat, A et al 48 The location of the lesion is an important consideration in the interpretation process because each lesion has a predilection for a particular area.…”

“…Odontogenic keratocysts are characterized by aggressive growth and high recurrence rates, which, depending on the surgical modality used in their treatment, could reach even 32.3% (Al‐Moraissi et al., 2017). Another striking feature of these lesions is the fact that they are among the most consistent manifestations of nevoid basal cell carcinoma (NBCC) syndrome (Karhade et al., 2019; Lo Muzio, 2008). This condition is directly related to mutations of the Patched (PTCH) gene, which is a part of the Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway.…”
