A keratocyst in the buccal mucosa with the features of keratocystic odontogenic tumor. [PDF]
A 74-year-old male patient consulted us for an elastic firm mass in the right buccal mucosa. CT examination revealed a well-circumscribed oval cystic lesion in the anterior region of the masseter muscle. On MRI, the lesion showed a low signal on T1-weighted image and a high signal on T2-weighted image.

Immunohistochemical expression of protein 53, murine double minute 2, B-cell lymphoma 2, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen in odontogenic cysts and keratocystic odontogenic tumor [PDF]
Introduction: Even though odontogenic cysts share a similar histogenesis, they show different growth and differentiation profile due to differences in the proliferative cellular activity. Aims: We perform an immunohistochemical assessment of protein 53 (

Keratocystic odontogenic tumor with an ectopic tooth in maxilla. [PDF]
The term odontogenic keratocyst was first used by Philipsen in the year 1956. The lesion was renamed by him as keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) and reclassified as odontogenic neoplasm in the World Health Organization's 2005 edition that occurs commonly in the jaws having a predilection for the angle and ascending ramus of mandible.

Application of endoscopy to treat mandibular keratocystic odontogenic tumors [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of endoscopy to remove keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KCOTs) with virtual 3D mandibular images. Fifteen patients (mean age, 40.27±14.58 years) who underwent endoscopic mandibular KCOT enucleation between May 2009 and October 2009 were included.

Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumor
ABSTRACTIn 2005, the World Health Organization renamed the lesion, previously known as an odontogenic keratocyst, as the keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KOT or KCOT). The term odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) was first used by Philipson in 1963 and its clinical and histologic features were confirmed by Browne in 1970 and 1971.
