A Clinicoradiographic and Pathological Study of Pericoronal Follicles Associated to Mandibular Third Molars

Abstract

The mandibular third molars in young adults showed a direct relationship with age and a statistical propensity for the development of these cystic alterations, notably paradental cysts.

Clinic-pathological Study and Comparative Analysis of Orofacial Lesions in a Brazilian Population of Children and Adolescents

“…The exclusion of clinically diagnosed lesions modify the distribution profile of MFC lesions. Thus, it warns the importance of interaction between clinical and complementary diagnostics in future studies, in order to mitigate this bias [34].…”

Study of the relationship between mononuclear inflammatory infiltrate and Ki‐67 and basement membrane and extracellular matrix protein expression in radicular cysts

“…), which means that its growth may be more associated with increased pressure of the follicle due to obstruction of the eruptive process (Costa et al . ), making the intracystic pressure a likely essential component for the growth of odontogenic cysts (Ward et al . ).…”

“…In DC, in which there is no inflammation, the collagen type IV intensity in basement membrane is preserved, but in extracellular matrix, it is reduced in relation to SIRC. In DC, the Ki-67 immunostaining is smaller, because they have a low potential for growth (Piatelli et al 2002, Nadalin et al 2011, which means that its growth may be more associated with increased pressure of the follicle due to obstruction of the eruptive process (Costa et al 2014), making the intracystic pressure a likely essential component for the growth of odontogenic cysts (Ward et al 2004). Further studies should be conducted to elucidate and/ or correlate this pattern of cell proliferation with the inflammatory infiltrate present in cystic capsules.…”

Histopathological evaluation of dental follicles associated with impacted third molars

“…Limiting epithelium: reduced enamel epithelium or absence of the epithelial lining. The presence of a stratified squamous epithelium was considered normal, with up to 3 cell layers, fragmented or separated from the surrounding connective tissue 11 (Figure 1).…”
