Multiple odontogenic keratocysts are rare and often linked to syndromes. This case highlights a pediatric patient with multiple keratocysts without any associated syndromic features, presenting a unique clinical scenario.

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Developmental Biology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) are developmental cysts of the jaw.
  • Multiple OKCs are uncommon and frequently associated with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) or other genetic disorders.
  • Early diagnosis and management are crucial for preventing complications.

Observation:

  • A 12-year-old female presented with multiple odontogenic keratocysts.
  • Clinical examination and diagnostic imaging were performed.
  • No other physical abnormalities suggestive of a known syndrome were identified.

Findings:

  • The patient exhibited multiple OKCs.
  • Comprehensive investigations ruled out associated systemic conditions or syndromes.

  • This presentation is atypical given the usual syndromic association of multiple OKCs.

    • Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering isolated multiple OKCs, even in the absence of syndromic signs.
    • Further research may be needed to understand the etiology of non-syndromic multiple OKCs.
    • Highlights the need for vigilant follow-up for potential recurrence or development of new lesions.
