Abstract
Introduction
Odontogenic cysts are cysts that originate from the odontogenic epithelium and are found in the areas of the jaw that bear teeth. Dentigerous cysts are one of the most common developmental types of odontogenic cysts occurring in the oral cavity and often manifest as incidental findings on dental radiographs and/or as asymptomatic swellings. Treatment usually involves cyst enucleation or tooth extraction, although decompression may be used for larger lesions.
Case report
We report the case of an 8-year-old patient referred by his ENT physician following the swelling of the left maxilla for whom the clinical, radiological examination associated with biopsy suggested a dentigerous cyst.
Conclusion
management consisted of decompression of the lesion after eight months which allowed the disappearance of the cystic. The patient continues to be followed clinically and radiologically.
导言:牙源性囊肿是源于牙源性上皮的囊肿,存在于颌骨的生牙部位。牙源性囊肿是口腔中最常见的发育型牙源性囊肿之一,通常表现为牙科 X 光片上的偶然发现和/或无症状肿物。病例报告我们报告了一例由耳鼻喉科医生转诊的 8 岁患者的病例,患者左上颌骨肿胀,经临床、放射学检查和活组织检查提示为牙源性囊肿。患者将继续接受临床和放射学随访。
