ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of decompression in the treatment of jaw large cystic lesions.Methods:42 patients with jaw large cystic lesions were treated with decompression.Imaging examination was taken and compared before and after the treatment.The influence of frequency of cyst cavity washing on the effect of decompression was observed.Results:3 moths after de-compression the border of the cyst cavity became ambiguous and the size of the cavity reduced.12 months after decompression the size of cyst cavity was stable,when second surgery was taken to remove the left cyst wall.There was no recurrence of the cystic lesion after 1 ~2 year follow-up.Cyst cavity was washed everyday,but the effect and treatment course were not influenced by the daily washing times.Conclusion:Decompression is effective in the treatment of the jaw large cystic lesions.
