    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Odontogenic Cysts

    Background:

    • Mandibular keratocysts are developmental odontogenic cysts.
    • These cysts can exhibit aggressive behavior and high recurrence rates.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a series of 15 mandibular keratocysts.
    • To outline treatment criteria and surgical methods for these lesions.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 15 cases of mandibular keratocysts.
    • Surgical treatment involving radical enucleation.
    • Post-operative management including bone packing.

    Main Results:

    • Successful treatment of 15 mandibular keratocysts.
    • Radical enucleation demonstrated efficacy in managing these lesions.
    • Bone packing facilitated healing and structural integrity.

    Conclusions:

    • Radical enucleation is an effective treatment for mandibular keratocysts.
    • Bone packing is a valuable adjunct in managing these cystic lesions.
    • Careful case selection and surgical technique are crucial for optimal outcomes.
