Radicular cyst masquerading as a large Unilocular lesion in the Body region of the Mandible – Case Report

Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 11

Abstract

Radicular cysts are common odontogenic cysts involving the apex of carious tooth/non-vital tooth that are slow growing and may cause bony expansion as well as involvement of the adjacent teeth and root resorption. The lesion consists of pathologic fluid-filled cavity lined by epithelium. Cyst can be managed surgically and or non-surgically. Choice of treatment depends on site and size of cyst. The present case, a characteristic large radicular cyst masquerading as a unilocular lesion, was managed with Enucleation and packing with Iodoform soaked gauze. The treatment of choice is dependent on the size and localization of the lesion, the bone integrity of the cystic wall and its close proximity to vital structures.
