1. The document discusses the differential diagnosis and treatment of various cystic lesions of the jaw, including periapical granulomas, cysts such as radicular and follicular cysts, giant cell lesions, fibrous dysplasia, and odontogenic tumors.
2. It provides details on the etiology, clinical and radiographic features, and treatment approaches for each condition, such as non-surgical versus surgical treatment depending on factors like lesion size and tooth involvement.
3. The diagnostic workup is also summarized, including aspiration of cystic lesions to determine fluid characteristics, and biochemical tests and biopsy to differentiate between solid lesions.
35. Follicular Cyst
Develops within dental follicle
Decreasing order of frequency around
unerupted teeth:
Mandibular third molars,
Maxillary third molars
Maxillary canines
81. 1-Giant cell granuloma
Common in maxillofacial region
Expansion of both cortical plates
Firm in consistency
Internal trabeculation
Very vascular

Rare in maxillofacial region
Common at the end of long bones
Tumor markers are present

100. 3-Brown node of
Hyperparathyroidism
Clinical + cytological presentation similar to
giant cell granuloma
Decrease definition of bone trabeculae
Partial or complete loss of lamina dura

103. FIBROUS DYSPLASIA
General Features
Cellular fibrous tissue replaces normal bone
Gradually increasing ossification
Lesions form rounded swellings
Self limiting disease
No specific changes in blood chemistry
70-80% are monostotic
20-30% are polystotic
105. POLYSTOTIC FIBROUS
DYSPLASIA
Multiple lesions, sometimes painful
Jaw lesions in 30% cases
Often multilocular cystic appearance
Mainly girls
Precocious puberty, skin pigmentation
Albright’s Syndrome
Rare
106. McCune-Albright Syndrome
Describe 50 years ago
Is named after two physicians
10% of polystotic fibrous dysplasia
Endocrine disorders Early puberty
Skin pigmentation with irregular borders
Café-au-Lait
124. Ameloblastoma
Most common
Locally invasive
Represent 11% of odontogenic tumors
Represent 1% of all oral tumors
Even Sex distribution
Mandible more often affected than maxilla
All features of a solid lesions present
Unilocular but often multilocular
158. Adenomatoid odontogenic Tumor
More common in incisor / premolar region
Associated with unerupted tooth
Clearly demarcated periphery
Scattered calcific bodies in radiolucent area
Can be confused with follicular cyst
Capsulated
163. CEMENTOMA
Early stage
Well demarcated radiolucency
If develop at apex
lamina dura is lost
If develop at distance
lamina dura persists
Involved teeth vital
Later stage
Calcified mass of cementum
173. COMPLEX ODONTOME
All dental tissues are represented,
individual tissues being well formed
but occur in a more or less disorderly
pattern
174. COMPOUND ODONTOME
All the dental tissues are represented in
more orderly pattern than in the complex
odontome so that the lesion consists of
many tooth like structure
175. CLINICAL FEATURES--I
* Slow growing
* Asymptomatic
* Retention of deciduous teeth
* Swelling extra oral
intra oral
both
243. CLINICAL EXAMINATION
Dead tooth or residual root
Expansion of outer cortical plate
Expansion of both cortical plates
Egg shell crackling sound
Fluctuation
Loosening of adjacent teeth
Missing tooth without history of extraction
Dull or hallow sound
