Odontogenic Cysts: Analysis of 680 Cases in Brazil

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of 680 odontogenic cysts diagnosed in Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil, and to compare results with findings in the literature. Data of odontogenic cysts diagnosed from 1985 to 2005 were collected from the files of the Oral Pathology Laboratory of Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil, and entered in a standardized form for later comparisons. The most prevalent odontogenic cysts were radicular (72.50%), dentigerous (22.2… Show more

“…It arises from epithelial residues in periapical periodontitis after death and necrosis of the pulp. Radicular cysts represented 69.3% of all cysts in our study, similar to the findings of Procket et al 6 (72.5%) and Jones et al 10 (60.3%) but higher than the findings of Manor et al 11 (48%), Meningaud et al 7 (53.5%), and Koseoglu et al 8 (56.9%). Female predilection (52.8%) was slightly greater than in males (47.2%), consistent with some previous studies 2,4-6 but different from others.…”

“…Overall, cysts occurred more frequently in adult men than in women, in agreement with findings reported in other studies. 5,6 The maxilla was most commonly affected by odontogenic cysts, which is in conflict with the findings of Meningaud et al 7 and Koseoglu et al 8 but consistent with those of other studies. 2,6,9 Although the cysts showed a predilection for the maxilla, the posterior mandibular region was also a common site.…”

“…Pouco mais do que alguns cistos podem resultar da inclusão do epitélio ao longo das linhas embrionárias de fusão, sendo que a maioria dos cistos dos maxilares são revestidos pelos componentes do epitélio odontogênico 3 . Quando da presença de processos inflamatórios estimulantes a proliferação epitelial odontogênica, estas patologias são classificadas como lesões de origem inflamatória 4 , porém há lesões cuja origem ainda não é conhecida, sendo classificadas como cistos do desenvolvimento.…”
