Title
A 10-year study on the incidence of Oral Maxillofacial lesions in Department of Oral Maxillofacial Surgery, Mahidol University: Keratocystic odontogenic tumor.
Abstract
Introduction: Keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) is one of the most
aggressive odontogenic cysts due to its relatively high recurrence rate,
fast growth, and its tendency to invade adjacent tissues.
Objective: The aim of the study was to retrospectively analyze the
clinico-pathological characteristics of 109 KCOT cases.
Materials and methods: <describe the study protocol in short>
Results: The study comprised of 46 male and 63 female patients with
an age range of 3-87 years with an average age of 32 years. The
posterior mandible (48.4%) was the most frequent site of KCOT. Most of
the patients were asymptomatic (41%), where as some noted associated
swelling, pain, discharge, and paraesthesia. On pathological analysis,
45% of the cystic cavity content was noted to be keratin. On radiologic
findings, KCOT appeared as unilocular (83%) as well as multilocular
lesions (14%). KCOT was associated with the displacement of impacted
teeth; the mandibular third molars (40.37%) were the most frequent
impacted teeth. Three patients were confirmed to be associated with
nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome.
Conclusion: Almost all of the lesions were diagnosed histologically as
stratified squamous parakeratinized epithelium (90.82%).
