ABSTRACT
Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) are benign intraosseous lesions of odontogenic origin that are classified as developmental cysts derived from the dental lamina. They may occur at any age, but usually between the second and third decade of life. Men are more commonly affected than women are. The OKC accounts for approximately 11% of all cysts in the jaws and is most often located in the mandibular ramus and angle. They exhibit aggressive behavior with local invasive and evolutionary potential and a high level of recurrence. Radiographically, it appears as a unilocular or multilocular lesion with a scalloped contour. The aim of this article is to report the case of a large odontogenic keratocyst diagnosed in a 43-year-old patient who underwent surgical enucleation in the Oral Surgery Department of the Dental Consultation and Treatment Center of Casablanca, and to underline the importance of a conservative approach in managing OKCs.
Keywords: odontogenic keratocyst; diagnosis; conservative management.
