“…In contrast to a previous study on nOCs [2], the present series revealed a slightly higher frequency of surgical ciliated cysts (5.2%). The age at the time of diagnosis ranges from 20 to 91 years [41,44], with a similar distribution in both genders [40,41]. The results of the present study are in accordance with these observations.…”

“…Similar features were observed in the cases evaluated in the present study. Although rare in western countries [40,41], surgical ciliated cysts are one of the most common maxillary cysts in Japan and are detected in up to 20% of patients after radical maxillary sinus surgery [42]. However, Basu et al [43] reported 23 cases of postoperative maxillary cysts and noted that these lesions may be more common outside Japan than previously suggested, possibly because of misdiagnosis.…”

The aim of the study was to determine the distribution of histologically diagnosed nonodontogenic cysts (nOCs) over a 40-year period in a Brazilian population. Biopsy records from patients with nOC from the files of the Oral Pathology Service during the period of 1970-2009 were evaluated. Among 10,311 oral biopsies, 58 met the criteria of nOCs. The most frequent nOCs were nasopalatine duct cysts (32.8%), followed by epidermoid cysts (20.7%) and oral lymphoepithelial cysts (17.2%). Nasopalatine duct cysts showed predominance among females (68.4%). Epidermoid cysts were most commonly found in the floor of the mouth (36.4%), tongue (27.3%), and buccal mucosa (27.3%). Oral lymphoepithelial cysts exhibited female prevalence (80.0%) and were commonly located in the tongue (44.4%). The frequency of nOCs found in the population studied here is slightly different from those reported in other case series. Nasopalatine duct cysts, epidermoid cysts, and oral lymphoepithelial cysts were the most common nOCs found, accounting for 70.7% of all nOCs.

“…Other POMC cases have been attributed to a variety of causes such as gunshot injuries, mid-facial fractures, maxillary orthognathic surgery, and maxillary sinus augmentation 10,11,12,13,14. One case in our study was a POMC due to maxillary orthognathic surgery (Fig.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of postoperative maxillary cyst (POMC) diagnosis by panoramic radiographs versus computed tomography (CT) and by oral and maxillofacial radiologists versus non-specialists.Materials and MethodsSixty-five maxillary sinuses with POMCs and 63 without any lesion were assessed using panoramic radiographs and CT images by five oral and maxillofacial radiologists and five non-specialists on a five-point scale. The areas under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were analyzed to determine the differences in diagnostic accuracy between the two imaging modalities and between the two groups of observers. The intra-observer agreement was determined, too.ResultsThe diagnostic accuracy of CT images was higher than that of panoramic radiographs in both groups of observers (p<0.05). The diagnostic accuracy of oral and maxillofacial radiologists for each method was higher than that of non-specialists (p<0.05).ConclusionThe use of CT improves the diagnosis of POMC, and radiological training and experience leads to more accurate evaluation.

“…The histology of a POMC could be potentially confusing because of the extensive fibrous repair of a previous trauma, and could render the diagnosis difficult [11,15] since the presence of respiratory epithelium is a mandatory finding in the maxillary sinus. Other lesions of the maxillary sinus that must be considered in the diagnosis of a POMC are mucous retention cysts and maxillary pseudocysts [16][17][18]. According to Gardner [19], histologically, these lesions share pseudostratified columnar epithelium [15,20,21]; however, they do not usually follow an aggressive pattern, displacing or reabsorbing the surrounding bony structures, when compared to POMCs [4].…”

A postoperative maxillary cyst (POMC) is a benign lesion arising from trauma or surgery involving the midface, specifically the maxillary antrum, as a late complication. It is usually locally aggressive, and accounts for approximately 20% of the lesions seen in Japanese patients undergoing extensive maxillary sinus surgery. According to the available literature, the insertion of mucosal cells between the bony edges of a fracture or osteotomy may result in the cystic degeneration that precedes this type of lesion. The clinical and histological characteristics of a POMC are often mixed, with fibrous connective and myofibroblastic tissue in the surrounding anatomy, which could make the diagnosis difficult or misleading.
