Keratocystic odontogenic tumor: a review [PDF]

Journal of Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery, 2009
The odontogenic keratocyst is a very well known odontogenic cyst. There are many types of cysts of the jaws, but what makes the odontogenic keratocyst unusual are its characteristic histopathological and clinical features, including potentially aggressive behaviour, high recurrence rate, and an association with the nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome.

Model‐assisted marsupialization of a large odontogenic keratocyst in the maxillofacial region using a multicolored 3D‐printed model: A novel approach in surgical planning and teaching

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 11, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Key Clinical Message 3D printing can improve surgical planning and coordination between the healthcare team and serve as a valuable educational tool for students. Abstract Although the occurrence of odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) in the maxillofacial region is not uncommon, their aggressive growth behavior requires advanced surgical techniques for ...

Odontogenic Keratocysts: Presentation and Surgical Outcome in a Sample of Sudanese Patients

International Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Background. Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a benign intraosseous lesion relatively frequent in the oral cavity. It has a locally aggressive behavior and exhibits a high propensity to recur after treatment. The present study aimed to investigate the clinicoradiographic presentations and outcomes of surgical treatment of OKC at Khartoum Teaching Dental ...

Signaling pathways in the regulation of cancer stem cells and associated targeted therapy

MedComm, Volume 3, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022
The major signaling pathways that regulate CSCs. Amongst an array of signaling pathways aberrantly activated in cancer Wnt, JAK/STAT, PI3k/Akt/mTOR, Notch, NF‐κB, Hedgehog, and TGF‐β/Smad pathways are crucial for the of self‐renewal, cell growth, metastasis of CSCs, and angiogenesis.

Potential Biomarkers and Signaling Pathways Associated with the Pathogenesis of Primary Ameloblastoma: A Systems Biology Approach

International Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Objective. Ameloblastoma is a benign odontogenic tumor that may lead to ameloblastic carcinoma. This study aimed to determine potential signaling pathways and biological processes, critical genes and their regulating transcription factors (TFs), and miRNAs, as well as protein kinases involved in the etiology of primary ameloblastoma. Methods.

Infected Dentigerous Cyst of Maxillary Sinus Mimicking Intraoral Abscess in a Pediatric Patient: Management of Misdiagnosis and Inaccurate Treatment

Case Reports in Dentistry, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The article presents the case of a 12‐year‐old male patient who was suffering from exacerbated (infected) dentigerous cyst of maxillary sinus, associated with impacted canine whose symptoms were deceptively similar to intraoral abscess. The first‐aid treatment performed by general dental practitioner consisted of intraoral incision and resulted in ...

Evaluation of urinary hydroxyproline and creatinine level in patients with benign mandibular odontogenic tumor

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 934-940, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Background Odontogenic tumors are relatively common oro‐facial tumors seen in our environment with challenges encountered with management in terms of inadequate infrastructure and high cost of treatment. They are often associated with bone resorption with concomitant collagen degradation and excretion of their by‐products in serum or urine ...

Cyclooxygenase‐2 protein expression modulates cell proliferation and apoptosis in solid ameloblastoma and odontogenic keratocyst. An immunohistochemical study

Journal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, Volume 50, Issue 9, Page 937-945, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Background Cyclooxygenase‐2 protein is a critically important mediator in inflammation that influences proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis and metastasis. Previous works showed a relationship between cyclooxygenase‐2 and tumourigenesis in humans and animal models. In epithelial odontogenic tumours and cysts, increased cell proliferation and

A Comparative Immunohistochemical Expression of Cyclin D1 in Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumor, Dentigerous and Radicular Cysts

Journal of Baghdad College of Dentistry, 2016
Background: Odontogenic cysts include a group of osseodestructive lesions that frequently affect the jaws. Those cysts could derive from odontogenic epithelium and occur in the tooth-bearing regions of the jaws.
