“…The anterior maxilla was the most affected region by both PG and PC, similarly to the data retrieved from the literature ( 2 - 4 , 8 - 10 ). Meningaud et al ( 13 ) and Del Corso et al ( 24 ) reported that PC predominantly affected the mandible, in contrast with most published studies. Our results showed that the distribution of the anatomical location comparing PG and PC was significantly different.…”

BackgroundPeriapical cysts (PC) and periapical granulomas (PG) are the two most common chronic inflammatory periapical diseases, but their clinicoradiological characteristics can vary depending on the methods employed in each study. The aim of the present work was to analyze the clinical and radiological profile of a series of PC and PG diagnosed in a Brazilian population.Material and MethodsThe files of two Oral Pathology laboratories were reviewed and all cases diagnosed as PG and PC were selected for the study. Clinical and radiological information were retrieved and data were tabulated and descriptively and comparatively analyzed.ResultsFinal sample was composed by 647 inflammatory periapical lesions, including 244 PG (38%) and 403 PC (62%). The number of women affected by PG was significantly higher than the number of women affected by PC (p=0.037). Anterior region of the maxilla was the most common affected area for both entities (39% of the cases), but the most common anatomical location of PG (anterior maxilla and posterior maxilla) was different from PC (anterior maxilla and posterior mandible) (p<0.0001). Upper lateral incisor was the most affected tooth. The mean radiological size of the PC was larger than the mean radiological size of the PG (p<0.0001) and PC showed well-defined radiological images more frequently than PG (p<0.0001).ConclusionsPC were more common than PG, both showed predilection for adult females, most lesions affected predominantly the anterior maxilla and PC presented larger mean radiological diameter and well-defined images when compared with PG. Key words:Periapical granuloma, periapical cyst, radicular cyst, diagnosis, Oral Pathology.

“…The dentigerous cyst (DC) is the second most common odontogenic cyst of the jaw, after the radicular cyst, and accounts for 20-30% of all jaw cysts. The cysts are thought to arise from the reduced enamel epithelium of unerupted teeth and are most common in the first to third decades and arising from the third molar, particularly in the mandible [4][5][6] .…”

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has recently seen an expansion in use, however there are few robust, evidence-based guidelines to inform practitioners. This article reports the case of a large dentigerous cyst in the maxilla affecting the eruption of multiple teeth, considers the use of CBCT in the management of such lesions, and discusses guidelines on the use of CBCT in dentistry. Clinical relevance: As CBCT use increases it is important that practitioners understand the guidelines surrounding its use. Due to the prevalence of dentigerous cysts, it is likely that they will be encountered clinically, and it is important that clinicians referring patients with such lesions are familiar with the principles of managing them.

Introdução: O cisto odontogênico glandular (COG) é uma lesão rara, correspondendo a 0,3% de todos os cistos odontogênicos. O COG é localmente agressivo, acomete com maior frequência a região anterior de mandíbula e compartilha características microscópicas com outras lesões císticas e neoplásicas.Objetivo: Relatar um caso de COG em maxila, abordando suas características clinicopatológicas, diagnóstico diferencial e terapêutica.Relato de caso: Paciente do gênero feminino, 61 anos de idade, apresentou-se para avaliação de uma tumefação assintomática localizada em maxila, na área dos dentes 11 ao 24. Exames imaginológicos evidenciaram lesão hipodensa, multilocular e expansiva que determinava rompimento das corticais ósseas vestibular e palatina da maxila. Sob hipótese diagnóstica de ameloblastoma, foi realizada biópsia incisional. O exame histopatológico revelou múltiplas cavidades císticas revestidas por epitélio não ceratinizado de espessura variável, com células superficiais de morfologia que variava de escamosa a colunar, intercaladas por células mucosas. No revestimento epitelial também foram constatados espessamentos em forma de placa, projeções papilares e espaços microcísticos. Com base nos achados microscópicos, foi estabelecido o diagnóstico conclusivo de COG. O tratamento realizado consistiu em clivagem óssea perilesional, seguida de curetagem e osteoplastia. Doze meses após a remoção cirúrgica da lesão, não foram constatados sinais clínicos ou radiográficos de recidiva.Conclusão: O COG é uma lesão localmente agressiva, cujo diagnóstico diferencial inclui cistos e neoplasias dos ossos gnáticos com comportamentos biológicos diversos. Levando-se em consideração a possibilidade de recorrência tardia dos COGs, o acompanhamento dos pacientes a longo prazo é de grande valia.

Jaw Cysts Diagnosed in an Italian Population Over a 20-Year Period

Abstract: Our study confirms that the distribution pattern of JCs in Italy is relatively similar to other studies worldwide and emphasizes the importance of recognizing the different histological types of JCs for their potential local aggressive behavior.
