| Abstract | The odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a benign but locally aggressive growing lesion that infiltrates the bone and surrounding tissue. It is characterized by high rates of recurrence along with rapid growth. Different forms of partly successful treatment therapies are reported. The retrospective study at hand examined 114 patients with OKC treated over a period of 20 years. Data extracted includes gender, age, location, previous treatment for the lesion, surgery, outcome, recurrence rate and follow-up. 63.1% of the patients underwent cystectomy, 22.5% by cystectomy and carnoy solution, 7.2% by cystectomy, and curettage, 4.5% by cystostomy and 2.7% by partial resection. In this study, no significant differences could be observed regarding the surgical method. Most recurrences occurred with 91.9% in the mandible with an average size of 5.5 cm |
