The odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a unique jaw cyst with high recurrence risk, often affecting males in the mandible. Conservative surgical treatment is preferred for large mandibular OKC cases.

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Pathology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • The odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is characterized by a high recurrence rate.
  • Epidemiological data indicate a male predilection and a predilection for the mandible.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review clinical, radiological, and histological features of large mandibular OKC.
  • To discuss treatment options and management strategies for OKC.

Main Methods:

  • Review of eight patient cases with large mandibular OKC.
  • Literature review focusing on clinical, radiological, and histological diagnosis.
  • Evaluation of treatment approaches including radical vs. conservative surgery.

Main Results:

  • Large mandibular OKC requires CT scans for accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and follow-up.
  • Surgical intervention is necessary for OKC management.
  • Conservative treatment is favored over radical approaches.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate diagnosis and appropriate surgical management are crucial for OKC.
  • Conservative treatment strategies may reduce recurrence and improve outcomes.
  • Ongoing follow-up is essential to monitor for recurrence and bone healing.
