Glandular Odontogenic Cyst of Mandible: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT

Glandular odontogenic cysts (GOCs) are a very rare developmental cyst of the jaws. GOCs are intrabony solitary or multiloculated cyst of odontogenic origin. The importance of GOCs lies in fact that they exhibit a high propensity for recurrence. Thus, the oral physicians, radiologist, and oral pathologist play a major role in the definitive diagnosis of GOCs based on distinctive cases; though they are rare. In large part, this is due to the GOCs complex and frequently non-specific histopathology. This report describes a case of GOC occurrence in posterior mandibular angle region in a 43-year-old Irani Male, which was a rare site for its occurrence.
