This document discusses various developmental cysts that can occur in the oral and maxillofacial region. It provides details on the location, cause, clinical features, radiographic features, histological features, treatment and prognosis for different cysts such as palatal cyst of newborn, nasolabial cyst, globullomaxillary cyst, nasopalatine duct cyst, median palatal cyst, median mandibular cyst, epidermoid cyst, dermoid cyst, thyroglossal duct cyst, branchial cleft cyst, and oral lymphoepithelial cyst.
The document discusses several types of non-odontogenic cysts that develop in the oral cavity. It describes nasopalatine duct cysts, which originate from remnants of the nasopalatine duct in the maxilla. These cysts typically appear as well-defined radiolucencies between the central incisors. Median palatal cysts and globulomaxillary cysts are also discussed, which develop from epithelial remnants during fusion of facial processes. Palatal cysts of newborns are extraosseous cysts that commonly appear on the hard palate of infants.
Developmental cysts can arise from epithelial remnants during embryonic development. The nasopalatine duct cyst arises from remnants of the nasopalatine duct in the midline maxilla. It appears on imaging as an oval radiolucency between central incisors. Histologically it is lined by respiratory, cuboidal, or squamous epithelium. Surgical enucleation is the treatment and recurrence is rare. The nasolabial cyst arises from remnants of the nasolacrimal duct in the soft tissues of the anterior maxilla. It presents as a unilateral swelling and is treated with surgical excision.
This document discusses and classifies various cysts of the jaws and neck. It describes 9 main odontogenic cysts including radicular, lateral periodontal, dentigerous, and calcifying odontogenic cysts.

Finally, it summarizes 3 main soft tissue cysts of the neck - branchial, dermoid, and thyroglossal tract cysts.
Fissural cysts arise along lines of fusion between embryonic processes. Nasopalatine duct cysts are the most common non-odontogenic cyst, arising from epithelial remnants of the nasopalatine duct. Median palatal cysts occur in the midline of the hard palate from entrapped epithelium. Dermoid and epidermoid cysts contain skin elements and arise from implantation of epithelium during embryonic development. These cysts are examined clinically and radiographically and often surgically removed.
This document discusses and compares different types of non-odontogenic (not related to teeth) cysts. It separates them into developmental and inflammatory cysts. Developmental cysts form due to epithelial cell remnants becoming trapped during embryonic development, while inflammatory cysts form due to duct obstruction or trauma. Some examples of developmental cysts mentioned are nasopalatine duct cysts, median palatal cysts, and dermoid cysts. Inflammatory cysts include mucoceles, ranulas caused by salivary gland duct obstruction, and retention cysts of the maxillary sinus. The document provides details on pathogenesis, clinical features, histopathology, diagnosis and treatment of several of these cyst types.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
2. Cyst :- is a pathological cavity (often fluid filled) lined by
epithelium.
Fissural cysts are called so because they were
thought to arise from epithelium entrapped along
embryonal lines of fusion .
Regardless of origin, once cysts develop in the oral and
maxillofacial region ,they tend to slowly increase in size ,
possibly in response slightly elevated hydrostatic luminal
pressure.
3. Various developmental cysts in oral and maxillofacial
region are :-
1. Palatal cyst of new born
2. Nasolabial cyst
3. Globullomaxillary cyst
4. Nasopalatine duct cyst
5. Median palatine cyst
6. Median mandibular cyst
7. Epidermoid cyst
8. Dermoid cyst
9. Thyroglossal duct cyst
10. Branchial cleft cyst
11. Oral lymphoepithelial cyst
4. Palatal cyst of new born (Epstein’s pearl
and Bohn’s nodule)
They are the inclusion cyst arise in one of two ways .
First , during formation of secondary palate small
islands of epithelium may entrapped below the
surface along the median palatal raphae and form
cyst.
Secondly this may arise from epithelial remnants
derived from the development of the minor salivary
gland of palate.
As originally described Epstein's pearl occurs along
medial palatal raphae arise from epithelium
entrapment . Bohn’s nodule are scattered over the
hard palate and soft palate arise from minor salivary
glands.
5. Clinical Features :-
- Common and reported
in 65- 85% of neonates.
- Cysts are small 1-3 mm
white or yellowish white
papule appear along
midline near junction of
hard and soft palate
- Occasionally seen along
the raphae or on the
posterior palatal to the
midline
6. Histological Features :-
- thin, stratified squamous epithelium cyst lining with a routine
fibrovascular connective tissue stroma, usually without an
inflammatory cell infiltrate.
- The cystic lumen is filled with degenerated keratin, usually
formed into concentric layers or onion rings and the epithelium lacks
rete processes.
Treatment and prognosis :-
- They are innocuous lesion and no treatment is required.
-They are self healing and rarely observable several weeks
after birth . Presumably the epithelium degenerates or cyst
rupture onto the mucosal surface and eliminate their keratin
content.
7. Nasolabial cyst
(Nasoalveolar cyst / klestadt’s cyst)
The nasolabial cyst is a rare developmental cyst that occur
in upper lip lateral to the midline
Origin is uncertain
Two theories explain its pathogenesis,
one theory considers it to be fissural cyst arising from
epithelial remnants entrapped along the line of embryonic
fusion of maxillary medial nasal and lateral nasal process.
Second theory suggests that these cysts develop from
misplaced epithelium of nasolacrimal duct because of there
similar location and histology.
8. Clinical features :-
- Appears as swelling of upper lip lateral to the
midline , resulting in elevation of the ala of nose .
- Often elevates the mucosa of nasal vestibule
and obliterates the maxillary mucolabial fold.
- This expansion may result in nasal obstruction
or may interfere with wearing denture.
- Pain is uncommon unless the lesion is
secondarily infected .
- Cyst may rupture spontaneously and may drain
into oral cavity or nose.
9. - Commonly seen in adult with peak prevalence in 4 – 5 th
decade and more in females
- Pressure resorption of underlying bone can be noticed in
radiograph.
Histological features :-
- Cyst is lined by pseudo stratified columnar epithelium often
demonstrating the goblet cells and cilia . Areas of cuboidal
epithelium and squamous metaplasia are not unusual.
- Cyst wall composed of fibrous connective tissue with adjacent
skeletal muscle .
- Inflammatory changes seen if the cyst is secondarily infected.
Treatment and prognosis :-
-Complete surgical excision of cyst
via intra oral approach is treatment
of choice.
10. Nasopalatine duct cyst (incisive canal
cyst )
-It’s the most common non odontogenic cyst of the oral cavity
- The cyst is believed to arise from remnants of the nasopalatine
duct (an embryonic structure connecting the oral and nasal cavity
in the area of incisive canal ).
Clinical features:-
- Common in 4 th – 6 th decade
- Swelling of the anterior palate, drainage, and pain
- Patient some times relate a long history of these symptoms
because of intermittent nature
- Large cysts may cause through and through fluctuation
expansion involving anterior palate and labial alveolar mucosa .
a nasopalatine duct cyst may develop in the soft tissues of the
incisive papilla area without any bony involvement. Such lesions
often are called cysts of the incisive papilla.
11. Radiological features :-
- Demonstrate well circumscribed
radiolucency in or near the
midline of anterior maxilla
between and apical to central
incisor.
- Lesion is round or oval with
sclerotic border.
- inverted pear shape due to
resistance of adjacent tooth or
heart shape as a result of
superimposition of nasal spine
- Lesion size will be less than 6
cm. and 6mm radiolucency is
regarded as normal foramen in
this area unless others
symptoms are present.
12. Histological features :-
- Epithelium of nasopalatine cyst is highly variable it
may be stratified squamous ,pseudo stratified
columnar, simple columnar , simple cuboidal.
- Because the nasopalatine duct cyst arises within the
incisive canal, moderate-sized nerves and small
muscular arteries and veins usually are found in the
wall of the cyst.
- Frequently inflammatory response is noted in cyst wall
and it will be chronic in nature and composed of
lymphocytes , plasma cells and histocytes
Treatment and prognosis :-
Surgical enucleation and biopsy
13.
14. Median palatal (palatine) cyst
Fissural cysts develops from epithelium
entrapped along the embryonic line of
fusion of the lateral palatal shelves of the
maxilla.
Clinical features :-
- Firm and fluctuant swelling of midline of
hard palate posterior to palatine papilla.
- Affects young adults.
- Usually asymptomatic some times patient
complains of pain and expansion
- Average size of swelling is 2x2 cm.
- True median palatine cyst should exhibit
clinical enlargement of the palate
15. Radiographic feature :-
Well circumscribe radiolucency
in the midline of hard palate
opposite the bicuspid and molar
region, frequently bordered by a
sclerotic layer of bone
Histological feature :-
Lining consists of stratified
squamous epithelium overlying a
relatively dense fibrous connective
tissue band which may show
chronic inflammatory cell infiltration
Treatment. surgical removal and
thorough curettage.
16. To differentiate the median palatal cyst from other cystic
lesions of the maxilla, Gingell and associates suggested the
following diagnostic criteria:
• Grossly appears symmetrical along the midline of the
hard palate
• Located posterior to the palatine papilla
• Appears ovoid or circular radiographically
• Not intimately associated with a nonvital tooth
• Does not communicate with the incisive canal
• Shows no microscopic evidence of large neurovascular
bundles, hyaline cartilage, or minor salivary glands in the
cyst wall
17. Globullomaxillary cyst
It is a fissural cyst arises from epithelium entrapped
during the fusion of globular portion of median nasal
process with the maxillary process .
cyst forms in the bone suture between the premaxilla and
maxilla,the incisive suture, (‘premaxilla-maxillary cyst’)
Clinical features :-
- Classically develop between maxillary lateral incisor and
cuspid teeth occasionally seen between central and
lateral incisor.
- As lesion grows there will be tipping of the tooth root.
18. Radiological feature :-
• an inverted, pear-shaped radiolucent area between
the roots of the lateral incisor and cuspid, usually
causing divergence of the roots of these teeth
19. Differential diagnosis:
Periapical granuloma, apical periodontal cyst, lateral
periodontal cyst, odontogenic keratocyst, central giant
cell granuloma, calcifying odontogenic cyst, and
odontogenic myxoma
Histological features :-
Histological globulomaxillary cyst lined by either
stratified squamous or ciliated columna epithelium
the wall is made up of fibrous connective tissue,
usually showing inflammatory cell infiltration.
Treatment and prognosis :-
Surgical enucleation .
If the lesion can be related to an adjacent nonvital
tooth , then endodontic therapy may be appropriate.
20. Median mandibular cyst
Represent fissural cyst in the anterior midline of the mandible that develops from
epithelium entrapped during fusion of the halves of mandible
Clinical features and radiographic :-
- clinically asymptomatic
- discovered only during routine radiographic examination.
- seldom produce obvious expansion of the cortical plates of bone,
- Midline radiolucency found between or apical to the mandibular central incisors
Histological feature :-
- Lined by stratified squamous epithelium.
Treatment and prognosis :-
Surgical removal and recurrence should not be expected
21. Epidermal Inclusion Cyst
(Epidermal cyst, epidermoid cyst, epithelial cyst, keratin cyst, milia)
Common cyst of skin lined by epidermis like epithelium
Derived from the follicular infundibulum and called infundibular cyst.
Arise after localized inflammation of hair follicle and represent nonneoplastic
proliferation of infundibular epithelium.
Occasionally arise after traumatic implantation of epithelium.
Clinical features :-
Common in acne prone areas of head neck and back region
Usually affects before puberty unless they are associated with Gardner’s
syndrome
Males are affected more than females
Presents as nodular fluctuation subcutaneous lesion that may or may not
associated with inflammation and a non inflamed lesion is white to yellow in
color.
Discharge of a foul-smelling cheese-like material is a common complaint.
Less frequently, the cysts can become inflamed or infected, resulting in pain
and tenderness.
22. Milia (singular: milium) are tiny keratin-filled
cysts that resemble miniature epidermoid cysts
•When located orally, the cysts can
cause difficulty in feeding, swallowing, or
even speaking
•Epidermoid cysts appear as firm, round,
mobile, flesh-colored to yellow or white
subcutaneous nodules of variable size.
•A central pore or punctum is an
inconsistent finding that may adhere the
cyst to the overlying epidermis and from
which a thick cheesy material can
sometimes be expressed
23. Histological features :-
Lined by stratified squamous epithelium
A well developed granular cell layer is seen and the lumen is filled
with orthokeratin.
Dystrophic calcification and reactive foreign body reaction are seen
associated with the cystic capsule.
Pigmented epidermoid cysts may demonstrate melanin pigment in
the wall and a keratin mass.
A surrounding infiltrate of melanocytes and melanophages may also
be observed.
Treatment and prognosis :-
- By conservative surgical excision and recurrence is uncommon .
- Malignant transformation has been reported but is exceedingly rare.
24. Dermoid cyst
A hamartomatous tumor containing multiple sebaceous glands and almost
all skin adnexa, this may contain substances such as nails and dental,
cartilage like, and bone like structures.
If limited to the skin or subcutaneous tissue, dermoid cysts are thin walled
tumors that contain different amounts of fatty masses; occasionally, they
contain horny masses and hairs.
Origin : sequestration of skin and subsequent implantation of it along the
lines of embryonic closure.
Clinical features :-
- occur in individuals aged 10–30 years
- Commonly occur in midline of the floor of the mouth
- If cyst develops above geniohyoid muscle , a sublingual swelling may
displace the tongue towards the roof of mouth and causes dysphagia and
dysphonia or even dysponea.

application
25. Histological features :-
lined by orthokeratinized stratified squamous epithelium, with a
prominent granular cell layer.
Cyst wall composed of fibrous connective tissue that contain skin
appendages like sebaceous glands , hair follicle and sweat gland.
Treatment and prognisis :-
Surgical removal
26. Thyroglossal duct (tract) cyst
The thyroglossal duct epithelium normally undergoes atrophy
however, remnants of this epithelium may persist and give rise
to Thyroglossal duct (tract) cyst.
Clinical features :-

swallowing or protrusion of tongue.
Histological features :-
- Lined by columnar or stratified
squamous epithelium
- thyroid tissue may occur in the cyst
wall.
Treatment and prognosis :-
- Best treated by sistrunk procedure
and recurrence is 10 % in this
procedure .
28. Branchial cleft cyst
(Cervical lymphoepithelial cyst)
Developmental cyst of lateral neck.
The cyst develops from remnants of branchial cleft because it occurs in the
area of embryonic gill apparatus .
95% of the cyst develops from second arch and 5% from 1st, 3rd & 4th
arches.
