Abstract

The glandular odontogenic cyst is an uncommon odontogenic cyst as a distinct entity. We reviewed a series of 7 glandular odontogenic cysts of the jaws experienced between 2003 and 2006 at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial surgery, Chosun university. The study group consisted of 3 females (42.9%) and 4 males (57.1%), with an age range of 31 to 75 years and mean age was 58.6 years. The maxilla was involved in 5 cases (71.4%) and the mandible in 2 cases (28.6%). Three cases involved impacted tooth. Clinically 6 cases showed swelling and tenderness. All the lesion presented well-defined unilocular radiolucent lesion radiographically. Provisional clinical diagnosis was varied, incisional biopsy was done in 1 case. Histopathologically, those were lined by non-keratinized stratified epithelium and thickened epithelial segments (plaques) are seen within the lining epithelium. And epithelial lining contains eosinophilic cuboidal type cells, mucous cells and mucin pools in microcystic areas are identified. All cysts were treated by enucleation. All cases are not recurred during follow up period.
