“…SBCs rarely cause complications, but the possibility of pathological fractures in extensive lesions should not be ruled out [24]. When SBCs of the jaw are associated with bone cement dysplasia, cementoma, odontoma, or mesodermal tumor, patients may present pain or inflammation [6, 24–26].…”

“…Some authors have reported symptoms such as pain and tooth sensitivity and, when the jaw is affected, possible paresthesia associated with displacement of the inferior dental canal [4, 5]. SBCs may be found in other parts of the skeleton, mainly in the long bones (90-95%) with a high prevalence in the proximal metaphyseal region of the humerus (65%) and the diaphyseal axis of the femur (25%) [5, 6]. SBCs represent only 1% of all maxillary cysts, and their incidence in the upper jawbone is infrequent: the vast majority of jaw SBCs are located in the premolar and molar regions of the body of the mandible (75%) or in the symphysis [7, 8].…”

Background. A solitary bone cyst or simple bone cyst is a nonneoplastic osseous lesion, with no epithelial lining, also considered as a pseudocyst. These lesions, with an intact bony wall and fluid-filled, are frequently discovered by chance in radiological studies. The etiopathogenesis has not been studied in depth, and the management remains controversial. Case Presentation. We present a clinical case of a 15-year-old boy who underwent an orthopantomography to assess the development and position of the third molars during a routine postorthodontic check-up. By chance, the X-ray identified an asymptomatic radiolucent image in the left jaw, measuring 12.0 mm×17.8 mm and compatible with a solitary bone cyst involving teeth 35 and 36. We describe our technique for performing minimally invasive decompression of the lesion using a microperforated catheter. We describe the entire course of the follow-up, both clinical and radiological, until complete cure. Conclusions. This straightforward continuous decompression technique poses no problems for the patient, has a low risk of sequelae, and is clearly cost-effective. In view of the highly satisfactory evolution, whenever possible, we favor this minimally invasive technique for the treatment of solitary bone cysts in the jaw.

Solitary bone cyst of the mandible is an intra-osseous cavity lacking epithelial lining considered a pseudocyst. Due to its uncertain etiology and pathogenesis, it has received several names such as traumatic bone cyst or idiopathic bone cyst. From a clinical perspective, it is oftentimes an asymptomatic lesion, with festooned borders when located between dental roots. It is an empty cavity but might contain blood, serous or serous-hematic fluid and can be perceived in routine X-ray examinations. The present article describes the case of a solitary bone cyst located in the body of the mandible of a 17-year old female patient. Affl icted with Fallot's tetralogy. Clinical, diagnostic and radiologic aspects as well as treatment are described. RESUMENEl quiste óseo solitario de la mandíbula es una cavidad intraósea sin recubrimiento epitelial, considerado un pseudoquiste, ha recibido diversas denominaciones debido a su etiología y patogenia inciertas como quiste óseo traumático, quiste óseo solitario y quiste óseo idiopático. Clínicamente suele ser una lesión asintomática, muestra bordes festoneados cuando está localizado entre las raíces dentales, es una cavidad vacía pero puede contener sangre, fl uido seroso o serohemático y es descubierta en exámenes radiológicos de rutina. En este artículo se presenta un caso de quiste óseo solitario localizado en el cuerpo mandibular que acomete a un paciente femenino de 17 años de edad con tetralogía de Fallot, revelando aspectos clínicos, diagnósticos e imagenológicos y tratamiento.Quiste óseo solitario mandibular.
