Abstract

Stafne bone cyst (SBC) is a bone defect usually located in the posterior portion of the mandible or mandibular angle below the inferior alveolar nerve. The cases of SBC involving multiple anterior tooth apices and penetrating the mandibular bone are extremely rare. Here we present a case of an anterior-positioned SBC mimicking periapical cyst, which penetrated the mandibular bone, with a review of the differential diagnosis.

Stafne 골낭종은 악하선의 발생 시 생긴 하악골의 결손부로 주로 하악골의 후방부나 하악 우각부에 발생한다. 대부분 하치조 신경관 하방에 발생하며 하악골 전방부에 발생하거나 하악 치아와 연관된 경우는 드물다. 또한 하악골의 천공을 일으키는 경우는 더욱 드물다. 본 증례는 하악골 전방부에 발생하여 하악골 천공을 일으킨 치근단낭과 유사한 병소가 stafne 골낭종으로 진단된 희귀한 증례로, 이와 유사하게 하악골에 발생 가능한 병소의 감별 진단과 함께 보고하고자 한다.
