Peculiar case of orthokeratinised odontogenic cyst: a peripheral counterpart of the intraosseous entity?

Abstract: We describe a case of an orthokeratinised odontogenic cyst (OOC) in a 49-year-old man, which presented as a submucosal fluctuant, non-tender, soft nodule distal to the inferior right first molar that could be considered a peripheral counterpart of the intraosseous OOC.

“…Consequently, basis for deciding on an odontogenic derivation for all jawbone cyst with orthokeratinized stratified squamous epithelium is insufficient. In addition, 2 cases of OOC that occurred in the gingiva have been reported previously [29] [30]. In the future, elucidation of the pathogenesis based on the accumulation of further cases and clarification of the molecular pathology will be needed.…”

“…The histopathological characteristics it presents are an epithelium with an orthokeratinized lining, made up of a prominent granulous layer, and basal layer of flattened cuboidal cells that show no trend towards the palisaded nuclear arrangement [1][2][6][7] . Their treatment consists of marsupialization or surgical enucleation 2,7 .…”
