ABSTRACT
keratocysts of the maxilla. Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) are jaw cysts with a proclivity for local invasion and recurrence. Clinically, OKCs are characterized by aggressive, local growth. The diagnosis of mandibular OKC is based on physical examination and plain film radiographic findings. However, histopathological confirmation is required to make the diagnosis with certainty. The molar regions of the mandible and maxilla are the principal primary locations. The maxillary antrum is also a common site. Initial therapy is typically enucleation with or without extraction of the associated teeth. Long-term follow-up is necessary because of the aggressive nature and recurrence rate of OKCs.
