Analysis of Traumatic Bone Cyst of the Jaws: A Retrospective Study
Journal Title: Meandros Medical and Dental Journal - Year 2019, Vol 20, Issue 3
Abstract
Objective: Traumatic bone cysts (TBC) are rare in the jaws, and may be characterized by the presence of a cavity in bone with no epithelial lining. Clinically, TBC is asymptomatic and often discovered incidentally on routine radiographic examination. The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical, surgical, and radiographic features of TBCs. Materials and Methods: Records of patients with cystic lesions, who were treated in our clinic between 2006 and 2016, were examined. Twenty-two TBCs were detected among all odontogenic/nonodontogenic cysts. Clinical, radiographical, histopathological features of TBCs and follow-up information of the patients were analyzed retrospectively. Results: The mean age of the patients was 18.5. The incidence of the TBC was found 1.05%. All lesions were found in the mandible, and were diagnosed incidentally during routine dental examinations except two cases have pain. Most cases showed a cavity without an epithelial lining, and were treated with curettage. No complications occurred during follow up period. Conclusion: TBCs are rare seen in the jaws, and the mandible is generally affected site. Bone healing may be accomplished successfully with the curettage of the cyst cavity.
