Traumatic bone cyst is known as a symptomless, radiolucent bony les ion incidentally found during routine radiographic examinations. The main characters of traumatic bone cyst are asymptomatic and unicystic radiolucent bony lesion with vital tooth. This case is a confusing case of a traumatic bone cyst with sudden gingival swelling and appearance like a periapical abscess. After surgical exploration and drainage, clinical and radiographic examination showed bony healing with pulpal vitality preserved after 7 months postoperatively.

외상성 골낭(Traumatic Bone Cyst)은 상피이장이 없는 비치성낭으로 감염의 증거가 없으며 많은 액체가 내장되는 특징을 가지는 병소이다. 외상성 골낭은 자각증상이 없는 병소로 10대에서 20대 사이에 호발하며 주로 남자에서 호발한다. 병소는 방사선학적으로 조개껍질 모양의 명확한 경계를 가지며 방사선 투과상을 보인다. 병소는 해면골에 위치하며 간혹 치밀골을 팽창시키거나 비박화시킨다. 병소 주변의 치아는 생활력을 유지하는 특징이 있다. 일반적으로 외상성 골낭은 방사선학적, 임상적인 기준으로 진단을 내리게 된다. 외상성 골낭의 치료법은 일반적으로 외과적인 적출술과 소파술을 시행한다. 본 두 증례 중 첫 번째 증례에서 환아는 개인치과의원에서 치수치료 도중 방사선 사진에서 방사선 투과상이 발견되어 본원으로 의뢰되었으며 파노라마 방사선 사진촬영 결과 좌측 하악골에 명확한 경계를 보이는 방사선 투과상을 보였다. 두 번째 증례에서 환아는 치외치인 상악 우측 제2소구치의 농양을 동반한 종창을 주소로 내원하였다가 초진시 촬영한 파노라마 방사선 사진에서 우측 하악골에 명확한 경계의 방사선 투과상을 보였다. 두 증례 모두 임상적, 방사선학적 검사결과 외상성 골낭으로 진단받았다. 첫 번째 증례에서는 생활력을 상실한 인접치아의 치근단공에 과기구 조작을 시행하여 병소를 교통시킨 후 지속적인 세척을 시도하여 병소가 치유되는 양상을 보였고, 두 번째 증례에서는 아무런 처치 없이 지속적인 관찰결과 병소의 크기가 감소하는 양상을 보였다. 본 두 증례에서 외과적인 적출술과 소파술을 시행하지 않고 보존적인 처치를 하였음에도 병소가 치유양상을 보이기에 보고하는 바이다.

Traumatic bone cyst (TBC) occurs preferentially on the mandibular symphysis and body, but rarely on the mandibular condyle. When TBC occurs in the condylar area, it can usually be related with or misdiagnosed as a temporomandibular joint disorder. A 15-year-old female patient visited the Temporomandibular Joint Clinic with a 5-year history of pain and noise localized in the left temporomandibular joint. On imaging, a well demarked oval-shaped radiolucent lesion was observed on the left condyle head. The patient underwent cyst enucleation and repositioning of the bony window on the lateral cortex of the affected condyle head under the impression of subchondral cyst or TBC; however, no cystic membrane was found. The bone defect resolved and showed no recurrence on the serial radiographic postoperative follow-up for 43 months after surgery.

Traumatic bone cyst is a pathologic cavity that is not lined with epithelium. It is, therefore, not a true cyst. It may be a normal variant rather than a disease process. The etiology of the condition is unknown. This condition is occured widely ranging ages(2 to 75years), however, most are ,found during the second decade of life. Radiographically, this condition is radiolucent lesion with well-defined outline, scalloping of superior margins, Cyst enucleation and curettage is the treatment of choice. The authors compared and analyzed the clinicoradiologic features of the five cases of traumatic bone cyst, diagnosed at the Dental college hospital in Chosun University, Kwangju, Korea. The five cases were shown the followed results; 1. 3cases occured in second decade of life & no significant sex differences (M:F, 2:3) All cases occurred in mandible. 2. Two patients complained symptoms, but three cases had no symptom with encountering during routine examination. 3. In 3 of 5cases, teeth vitality existed except one tooth and no checking of teeth vitality in two cases. 4. All cases didn't have any accurate trauma history, but one case was in orthodontic treatment, another case was postextraction site area. 5. Radiologically, 'scalloping appearance' were evident in all cases; in 3 cases, multilocular tendency & only one case seen intact mandibular canal image. 6. Histologically, all section showed bone trabeculae with blastic activity, 2 cases showed no epithelial lining, and other 2 cases were seen innflammatory cell infiltration in edematous tissue. 7. Surgical intervention (curettage) was that treatment of choice.

외상성 골낭은 임상 증상이 없으며 청소년기에 호발 한다. 주로 정기검진을 위한 파노라마 촬영시에 우연히 발견되며 병소는 비교적 경계가 뚜렷한 단일성의 방사선 투과상으로 가리비 껍질 모양의 변연을 보인다. 조직학적 소견으로 해면골내 공동과 얇고 느슨한 결합조직의 이장이 관찰된다. 상피세포의 이장이 존재하지 않는 것이 주된 조직학적 특징이다. 호발 부위는 하악 견치부와 제3대구치 사이이다. 하악 결합 부위에서는 드물게 나타난다. 외상성 골낭의 발병원인은 아직 명확하지 않다. 외상성 골낭은 외과적 적출술과 소파술로 치료되며 외과적인 처치 후 6 - 12 개월 정도 지나면 새로운 골로 채워진다. 대부분의 케이스에서 치료 전 외상성 골낭으로 진단 내리는 것은 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 증례에서는 방사선학적, 조직학적 검사를 통해 진단 내렸다. 두 환자 모두 외상 관련 병력은 없었다. 외과적 처치 후 파노라마와 CBCT를 이용하여 골성 치유를 확인하였다.

Cystic lesions of the mandible are fairly common and usually a presumptive diagnosis is made readily, more often on the basis of roentgenographic appearance than by any other means. Occasionally, however, it is easy to fall into errors of diagnosis which may affect one's choice of treatment. The diagnosis in these situations are usually resolved by the histopathologic examination of material obtained by surgical exploration. The present discussion to the lesions which can be most easily confused in the roentgenographic interpretation, that is, the traumatic bone cyst, the dentigerous cyst, the radicular cyst. These lesions often grow to considerable size before they cause any subjective or objective symptoms. Less frequently, perhaps, the patient presents himself with the complaint of enlargement of the affected part, a discharge, or pain. On rare occasions the first sign is fracture through the cyst cavity. In any case, an adequate roentgenographic survey by means of extraoral films is essential. This is the primary means of diagnosis. The three lesions in mandible, reported here, resembled each other roentgenographically in that they were osteolytic lesions. The follicular and radicular cysts usually have a smooth periphery and may be surrounded by a white line. The follicular cyst, slow-growing lesions, is usually associated with an unerupted tooth. The radicular cyst, the most common type of the odontogenic cyst, is always associated with a nonvital tooth, or it may persist as a "residual" radicular cyst after the causative tooth has been extracted. The traumatic bone cyst can often be differentiated from the first two in that the periphery is less definite and is irregular. It is thought that because it does not occur in older people, the lesion is self-limiting and heals spontaneously if left alone.

This is to report a case of traumatic bone cyst which occurred in the left condylar head of the mandible. It is a very rare case and the prognosis after operation seems to be fair, therefore we report as follows. 1. The pt, a 49 year-old female, has been suffering from difficulties of mastication with disfiguration of face due to deviation of mandible to the right side for 20 years. 2. Histopathologic findings showed the figure of multilocular bony cysts contained with fibrous tissue, osteoid tissue and many hematopoietic cells 3. Roentgenographic features showed well circumscribed radiolucent lesion with some radiopaque area. 4. After clinical evaluation, condylectomy was done to remove the lesion. 5. After the operation, the esthetic problem and masticatory functions were improved.

We reported a unique case of posttraumatic giant infratentorial extradural intradiploic epidermoid cyst. A 54-year-old male, with a previous history of an open scalp injury and underlying linear skull fracture in the left occipital region in childhood, presented with a painful subcutaneous swelling, which had been developed gradually in the same region and moderate headache, nausea, vomiting and cerebellar ataxia. The duration of symptoms on admission was 3 months. Imaging studies revealed occipital bone destruction and giant extradural intradiploic lesion. The preoperative diagnosis was giant infratentorial extradural intradiploic epidermoid cyst. Surgery achieved total removal of the lesion, which was histologically confirmed and the postoperative course was uneventful. To our knowledge, this is the first case of giant infratentorial extradural intradiploic epidermoid cyst with a traumatic etiology described in the literature.

Mandibular bone depression, also known as Stafne bone cavity, is defined as a bone depression filled mainly with salivary gland tissue. Parotid gland bone defects are infrequently observed. We report the case of a 52-year-old male patient who underwent radiographic examinations due to temporomandibular joint dysfunction, and a radiolucent area was detected in the mandibular ramus, with a provisional diagnosis of traumatic bone cyst or parotid mandibular bone defect. The patient was then referred for magnetic resonance imaging, which demonstrated a hyperintense area eroding the mandibular ramus, which corresponded to glandular tissue. Although the defect was a benign lesion, radiolucencies in the mandibular ramus lead to concerns among professionals, because their radiographic features can resemble various intrabony neoplastic lesions, such as giant cell tumors or benign tumors of the parotid gland.

Fifty-two cases of traumatic bone cysts in 50 patients were analysed clinically and radiologically. The obtained results were as follows; 1. Women showed a slightly higher incidence than did men (56% of patients) and the average age proved to be 18.6 years. 2. The majority of the cases were asymptomatic. being detected incidentally. and over the half of the cases occurred in the mandibular symphyseal region. 3. All cases were unilocular and the largest diameter of the lesions varied from 1 to 10㎝, mean 3㎝. 4. Some degree of marginal condensation was present in 28 cases and 23 cases presented pencil-sketch appearance. 5. Many anatomical cortical plates (especially, mandibular inferior cortex and lamina durae) consisted of the margin of the lesions partly. 6. Erosive change of the mandibular inferior cortex was caused by 12 cysts, but cortical expansion only by 3 cysts including 2 cases of buccal expansion. 7. The lesion enveloped the roots of the adjacent teeth in 27 cases and scalloping was present between roots in 17 cases. 8. Lamina dura of the teeth was destroyed by only 1 cyst, and in 1 case root resorption was noticed. But there was no divergence of the roots of teeth.
