Summary

Dentinoid formation, a rare occurrence, has been documented in an odontogenic keratocyst. This case highlights the importance of considering dentinoid-forming lesions in differential diagnoses.

Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Odontogenic cysts
  • Dentinoid formation

Background:

  • Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a rare cystic lesion of the jaw.
  • Hard tissue deposits like calcifications and cartilage are occasionally found in OKCs.
  • Dentinoid formation within an OKC has not been previously reported.

Observation:

  • A case of an odontogenic keratocyst with dentinoid formation is presented.
  • The lesion was located in the left mandibular premolar-molar region of a 37-year-old male.
  • The case involved a review of hard tissue deposits in OKCs.

Findings:

  • This study documents the first reported instance of dentinoid formation within an odontogenic keratocyst.
  • Differential diagnosis is crucial, distinguishing this from other dentinoid-forming odontogenic cysts and tumors.

Implications:

  • This finding expands the spectrum of histological variations observed in odontogenic keratocysts.
  • Accurate diagnosis is essential for appropriate management and treatment planning of odontogenic lesions.
