“…Clinically, GOC tends to affect most commonly the mandible, especially its anterior region, followed by the anterior maxilla. 11 In most cases, cortical expansion is observed, with or without cortical perforation, as well as root resorption and tooth displacement, which indicate the aggressiveness potential of this type of lesion. 8 Despite presenting non -specific radiographic characteristics, most cases present as multilocular lesions.…”

The glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is a rare jaw development cyst that exhibits aggressive biological behavior and is prone to recurrence. The present study aims to report a case of GOC with an emphasis on its clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects. A 40-year-old female patient presented to the Buccomaxillofacial Surgery service with a swelling in the anterior mandible. Histopathological analysis revealed a cystic cavity lined by a non-keratinized epithelium of varying thickness, exhibiting many features consistent with GOC, such as mucous cells and duct-like microcystic spaces. Lesion resection was performed, followed by immediate reconstruction. After one year of follow-up, the patient is free of recurrence. Therefore, this case highlights the importance of an effective diagnosis of GOC, through a clear definition of histopathological criteria, to provide the most appropriate treatment and absence of relapses.

“…The GOC is a rare odontogenic cyst, with a slight preference for men over 40 years and anterior region of the mandible. It can present different clinical and radiographic findings, so the histopathological analysis is extremely important [16]. Although they may also present varied microscopic features, GOC usually presents a squamous epithelial lining with cuboidal cells, mucous cells, ciliated cells and / or clear cells and duct-like structures may be seen [17].…”

Ameloblastoma is an odontogenic tumor that affects the bones of the jaw, often affecting posterior region of the mandible. It is a benign neoplasm and is frequently associated to an unerupted tooth. The purpose of this article is to report a case of failure in making an immediate full denture in a patient that had an ameloblastoma. A female patient aged 67 years complained of a hard swelling in the right mandible at the premolar region, that she noted after teeth extraction and confection of an immediate denture. Intraoral examination showed buccal and lingual cortical plate expansion and radiograph examination showed multilocular radiolucency with a well-defined margin. Fine needle aspiration was nonproductive and the provisional diagnosis was ameloblastoma. An incisional biopsy was performed and the histopathological report was conclusive of an acanthomatous ameloblastoma. The patient was sent for surgical excision of the lesion and after three years, the patient returned reporting that she was operated elsewhere in the past year and had an unsuccessful bone graft. She was sent to a prosthodontist to make a complete denture. In the present case the ameloblastoma was diagnosed only after the teeth extraction and immediate denture.

“…Histologically, GOC shows a non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelial lining, focal plaque like thickening within the lining, microcysts or intraepithelial crypts containing mucin, mucous cells and hyaline bodies, eosinophilic cuboidal or columnar cells that may be ciliated, papillary projections of epithelium and absence of inflammation in the subepithelial connective tissue. [ 4 ] Treatment methods vary from conservative to aggressive resection. A recurrence rate of 30% has been reported, and multicystic lesions have shown a recurrence rate as high as 55% when treated conservatively.…”

Rationale: Glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is a rare type of cyst of the jaws, which shares histological features with that of lateral periodontal cyst, botryoid cyst, radicular cyst with mucous metaplasia, or low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma, making it difficult to come to a definitive diagnosis. Not many cases of GOC have been reported in the literature. Patient Concerns: A 40-year-old male patient presented with pain in the upper right front tooth region. Mild extraoral swelling, obliterating the right nasolabial fold, was present. Tenderness on percussion was present in involved teeth. Diagnosis: On histopathological examination, GOC was confirmed featuring pseudostratified columnar cells with cilia, goblet cells, and mucous cells. Treatment: Complete enucleation of the cyst was done. Outcomes: No recurrence was noted on 1-year follow-up. Take-away Lessons: Due to high recurrence rate and aggressive nature of the cyst, it is important to plan proper management and long-term follow-up.
