Abstract
Radicular cysts are the most common inflammatory odontogenic cyst of jaw that emanates from the epithelial cell rests of malassez in the periodontal ligament 60 of cases are found in maxilla most commonly around incisors and canines with male predilection Most of the cases remain silent until secondarily infected Treatment modalities of Radicular cyst according to their size and severity are extraction of the associated tooth endodontic treatment apical surgery enucleation andor marsupialization Though radicular cyst involving inferior alveolar nerve may cause paraesthesia due the neurosensory disturbance caused by mechanical compression or stress Here we report a case of neurapraxia occurred in an infected radicular cyst involving roof of the inferior alveolar nerve canalKeywords Radicular cyst Inferior alveolar nerve Paraesthesia Neurosensory disturbance Compression Stress
