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.
