Abstract

Keratocystic odontogenic tumor, is an aggressive, destructive benign odontogenic neoplasm with a high recurrence incidence. While known as odontogenic keratocyst, because of having similar histopathologic characteristics with benign tumors, the parakeratotic type of this lesion was reclassified as a benign neoplasm by the World Health Organisation in 2005. A 37-year-old male patient attended our clinic with the chief complaint of swelling at the right mandibular molar region. Radiographic examination revealed a scalloped bordered radiolucency with well-defined, corticated borders. The result of the histopathological examination was reported as keratocystic odontogenic tumor

Keratokistik Odontojenik Tümör: Bir Olgu Sunumu

Abstract

Keratokistik odontojenik tümör lokal agresif, destrüktif ve infiltratif özellikte ve rekürrens oranı yüksek olan benign bir odontojenik neoplazidir. Odontojenik keratokist olarak bilinirken, bu lezyonun parakeratotik tipi odontojenik tümörlere benzer histopatolojik özellikleri nedeniyle 2005 yılında Dünya Sağlık Örgütü tarafından odontojenik neoplazi sınıflamasına dahil edilmiştir. Otuz yedi yaşında erkek hasta sağ alt çenesinde azı dişlerinin bulunduğu bölgede şişlik şikayetiyle kliniğimize başvurdu. Radyografik incelemede sağ mandibular ramus bölgesinde düzgün kortikal kemikle çevrili radyolüsent bir lezyon tespit edildi. Yapılan histopatolojik incelemenin sonucu, keratokistik odontojenik tümör olarak rapor edildi
