Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Pathology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Post-operative maxillary cysts are a recognized entity.
  • Previous reports suggest these cysts are rare outside of Japan.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the clinical, radiographic, and histopathological features of post-operative maxillary cysts diagnosed outside Japan.
  • To compare these features with cases reported in Japan.
  • To assess the prevalence and diagnostic accuracy of post-operative maxillary cysts internationally.

Main Methods:

  • Review of 23 cases diagnosed as post-operative maxillary cysts from outside Japan.
  • Analysis of clinical presentations.
  • Evaluation of radiographic findings.
  • Histopathological examination of cyst tissues.

Main Results:

  • Clinical, radiographic, and histopathological features of the 23 cases were consistent with those previously reported in Japan.
  • Several diagnostic parameters were identified as helpful.
  • The study suggests a higher prevalence outside Japan than previously thought, likely due to misdiagnosis.

Conclusions:

  • Post-operative maxillary cysts exhibit similar characteristics globally.
  • Accurate diagnosis relies on careful evaluation of clinical, radiographic, and histopathological data.
  • Increased awareness and improved diagnostic criteria are needed to correctly identify these lesions internationally.
