Traumatic Bone Cyst of Mandible

Abstract: The traumatic bone cyst, an uncommon lesion of the jaws, belongs to the category of 'pseudocyst' owing to its lack of a lining epithelial membrane. It is an asymptomatic lesion, which is often diagnosed accidentally during routine radiological examination commonly present in the posterior mandible as a unilocular radiolucency with scalloping borders. The exact etiopathogenesis of the lesion is still debated, though the role of trauma is often associated. Here we report a rare case of traumatic bone cyst in the… Show more

“…TBC also known as a simple bone cyst, idiopathic bone cyst, and primary bone cyst is a pseudocyst that mostly occurs in the second and third decades of life and has a slight male predominance or no sex predilection [21], [22]. Clinically, it often presents as an asymptomatic lesion without any bone expansion and most cases have been located in the posterior portion of the mandible [21]. In addition, presence of pain, buccal cortical expansion, and lower lip paresthesia are rare but possible chief complaint of patients with TBC [22].…”
