Objective: To estimate the recurrence of odontogenic keratocyst (OKCs) and increment of bone height upon an innovative treatment protocol of the OKC, i.e., enucleation along with the adjuvant therapy of Carnoy’s solution, followed by marsupialization. Method: Twenty cases of OKC treated at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery from 2020-2021 were studied retrospectively. Clinical, radiological features and histologic features were reviewed. The patients diagnosed with OKCs were planned for enucleation with the use of Carnoy's solution and followed by marsupialization. Recurrence of the same and bone formation was analyzed concerning sites of involvement, based upon the gender and age group of patients, after undergoing the proposed treatment. Results: Mean age of the patients was 35.15±13.02, ranging from 11 to 56 years. Most (85%) patients were symptomatic, and the remaining (15%) were asymptomatic and diagnosed on a routine check-up. Males (65%) were mostly affected than females (35%). Mandible (75%) was the most frequent site of occurrence. Most lesions were diagnosed histologically as OKC on incisional biopsy. All patients were followed for six months, an increment of 11.11±1.68mm bone height was seen, and none reported recurrence. Conclusions: The steady growth of bone without any cases of recurrence was reported. Hence, clinicians can consider enucleation along with adjuvant therapy using Carnoy's solution followed by marsupialization as the treatment of choice.
In this article we mostly focused on the best approach and management of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak or rhinorrhoea, Nowadays the best approach for cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhoea management is the nasal endoscopy approach i.e., because of less morbidity and high success rate in this which is detailed explained in this review literature. CSF rhinorrhoea can be treated by various types of approaches but the most successful and less morbidity approach is the endoscopic method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
