Definition
A Cyst is a pathologic cavity having fluid, semi fluid or gaseous content and which is not created by accumulation of pus.
Most cysts, but not all, are lined by epithelium. (KRAMER 1974)
![Page 3: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Types Of Cysts
TRUE CYSTS :
Cysts which are lined by epithelium, E.g. Dentigerous Cyst, Radicular Cyst, etc.
PSEUDO CYSTS : Cysts which are not lined by
epithelium, E.g. Solitary Bone Cyst, Aneurismal Bone Cyst, etc.

![Page 16: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Dentigerous Cyst
Dentigerous cysts exhibts two types with variant histologic features
Inflammed Type Non-Inflammed Type
![Page 17: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Inflammed Type
Lining shows varying degrees of hyperplasia with rete ridges and occasionally even keratinization.
Wall is composed of mature connective tissue which shows infiltration by chronic inflammatory cells
Focal areas of mucous cells can be seen in the lining. Small odontogenic epithelial islands can be seen in the wall.
![Page 18: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Non-Inflammed Type
Lining derived from reduced dental epithelium, consists of 2-4 cell layers of non keratinized epithelium, without
rete ridges.
Wall composed of thin fibrous connective tissue appearing immature, as it is derived from the dental papilla.
![Page 19: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
NON INFLAMED dentigerous cyst showing a thin nonkeratinized epithelial lining
INFLAMED DENTIGEROUS CYST showing a thicker epitheliallining with hyperplastic rete ridges. The fibrous cyst capsule shows a diffuse chronic inflammatory infiltrate
![Page 20: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Periapical Cyst
Cholesterol crystals in from of clefts are often seen in the connective tissue wall, inciting a foreign body giant cell reaction
Originate from disintegrating RBC’s in presence of inflammation
Different types of dystrophic calcification are also seen in connective tissue wall.
Mucus cell metaplasia as well as respiratory cells may be seen in the epithelial lining.
Keratinization if found is due to metaplasia and must not be confused with an OKC.
![Page 21: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Odontogenic Keratoyst (OKC)
The epithelial lining is composed of a uniform layer of stratified squamous epithelium,usually six to eight cells in thickness
The epithelium and connective tissue interface is usually flat, and rete ridge formation is inconspicuous.
The basal cell layer has columnar / cuboidal cells with reversely polarized nuclei, imparting a “picket fence” or “tombstone” appearance
![Page 24: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The luminal surface shows flattened parakeratotic epithelial cells, which exhibit a wavy or corrugated appearance
Small satellite cysts, cords, or islands of odontogenic epithelium may be seen within the fibrous wall
![Page 25: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Epithelial lining is 6 to 8 cells thick, with a hyperchromatic and palisaded basal cell layer
Note the corrugated parakeratotic surface

Common Epithelial Cysts Of Oral Region
Dentigerous Cyst Periapical Cyst Odontogenic Keratocyst
![Page 38: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Dentigerous Cyst
The dentigerous cyst is defined as a cyst that originates
by the separation of the follicle from around the crown of an unerupted tooth
It develops by accumulation of fluid between the
reduced enamel epithelium and the tooth crownThe dentigerous cyst encloses the crown of an unerupted tooth and is attached to the tooth at the cementoenamel junction
![Page 39: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Etiology
Reduced Enamel Epithelium
Dentigerous cyst arises from accumulation of fluid between the reduced enamel epithelium and the tooth crown
![Page 40: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Clinical Features
AGE : 1st to 3rd decades.
GENDER : More frequently in males than in females.
SITE : 2/3rd associated with unerupted mandibular 3rdmolar Maxillary canine Mandibular premolar Maxillary 3rd Molar Supernumerary tooth also can be involved
![Page 41: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Sign & Symptoms
Most cysts grow to a large size before being discovered while observing a dental x ray to detect the cause of an unerupted tooth.
Large lesions can cause cortical expansion, leading to facial asymmetry, teeth displacement, root resorption, even pain, if infected.
![Page 42: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Gross Specimens

Differential Diagnosis
Although dentigerous cysts present a unique feature, but some lesions must be considered in its differential diagnosis :
1. Unicystic ameloblastoma2. Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor.
![Page 44: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Complications
Recurrence due to incomplete surgical removal.
Development of ameloblastoma either from lining epithelium or from odontogenic islands in the connective tissue wall.
Development of squamous cell carcinoma either from lining epithelium or from odontogenic islands in the connective tissue wall.
Development of mucoepidermoid carcinoma from mucus secreting cells in the lining.
![Page 45: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Periapical Cyst
Synonyms : Radicular cyst Apical Periodontal cyst
Periapical cysts are the most common inflammatory cysts
They arise from the epithelial residues in the periodontal ligament as a result of periapical periodontitis following death and necrosis of the pulp.
![Page 46: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Etiology
Periapical cysts usually arises at the apical end of a carious tooth, they arise from the epithelial residues in the periodontal ligament
Carious infection followed by slow necrosis of the pulpal tissues of the tooth
Death of pulpal tissues results in formation of granulation tissue at the apical end of the tooth root
Lession develops to cyst following periapical periodontitis
![Page 47: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Clinical Features
Age: 3rd, 4th and 5th decades
Sex: Slightly frequent more in males
Site: Maxillary anterior region and mandibular anterior regions
Frequency: Most common inflammatory cystic lesion of the oral region
![Page 48: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Signs & Symptoms
Primarily asymptomatic Usually associated carious tooth and non vital
tooth
Discovered during routine dental X ray exam while
examining a carious tooth
Slowly enlarging hard bony swelling initially. Later, if cysts breaks through cortical plates, lesion becomes fluctuant
Rare in deciduous teeth
![Page 49: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Odontogenic Keratocyst (OKC)
OKC’s arises from cell rests of the dental lamina.
They exhibit a different growth mechanism and biologic behavior from the more common dentigerous cyst and radicular cyst.
Several investigations suggest that odontogenic keratocysts
can be regarded as benign cystic neoplasms rather than cysts
![Page 50: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Etiology
cell rests of serres (dental lamina)
OKC arises from Islands of epithelial cells that
originate from the oral epithelium and remain in the tissue after inducing tooth development.
![Page 51: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Clinical Features
AGE: Occurs over a wide age range and cases have been recorded as early as the first decade and as late as
the ninth In most series there has been a pronounced peak
frequency in the second and third decades
GENDER: More frequently in males than in females
SITE: The mandible is involved far more frequently than the maxilla
50% cases occur in angle region and extending to the ascending ramus and forwards to body of mandible
![Page 52: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Signs & Symptoms
Pain, swelling or discharge seen Occasionally, paraesthesia of the lower lip or
teeth. Some are unaware of the lesions until they develop pathological fractures
In many instances, patients are remarkably free of symptoms until the cysts have reached a large size, involving the maxillary sinus and the entire ascending ramus, including the condylar and coronoid processes
occurs because the OKC tends to extend in the medullary cavity and clinically observable expansion of the bone occurs late.
![Page 53: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

Differential Diagnosis
In case of unilocular radiolucency– Dentigerous cyst, Eruption cyst,Unicystic ameloblastoma etc.
In case of multilocular radiolucencies – Conventional ameloblastoma, Central giant cell granuloma, Aneurysmal
bone cyst etc.
![Page 55: Diagnosis of cysts in oral cavity](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/554b2e7cb4c905ce088b4d90/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Complications
Malignant transformation of cyst lining rare, but has been reported.
High rate of recurrence
Reasons for recurrence :
1. Thin, fragile lining is very difficult to remove completely.
2. New cysts develop from satellite cysts left behind.
3. New cysts can also develop from basal cells of overlying oral epithelium, especially in ramus – 3rd molar region.
