함치성 낭종은 일반적으로 미맹출 치아의 치관을 포함하고 있는 형태로, 치아 법랑질과 이장 상피 사이에 액체가 축적되어 생긴 잔존 법랑 상피조직의 퇴행성 변화로 부터 생긴다. 치근단 낭 다음으로 가장 흔한 치성 낭종으로, 주로 단독으로 발생하고 하악 제 3대구치와 상악 소구치에 호발한다. 악골의 다발성 낭종은 주로 기저세포 모반 증후군과 관련된 치성 각화낭이 대부분이고, 점액다당류증 또는 쇄골두개 이형성증과도 관련이 있을 수 있다. 단발성의 함치성 낭종은 우리에게 친숙할 정도로 유병율에서 치료 및 예후까지 잘 알려져 있으나, 전신병력이 없는 다발성의 함치성 낭종은 드물며, 상악과 하악에 발생한 다발성 낭종은 특히 더 드물다. 본 증례는 편측성으로 양악에 함께 발생한 다발성의 함치성 낭종을 가진 11세 소년에 대한 치료 증례로 1년간의 관찰 후 양호할만한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다. 1년이라는 관찰 기간이 짧기 때문에 향후 지속적인 임상적, 방사선적 관찰을 필요로 하리라 사료된다.

We reviewed 30 cases of keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) managed during the 8-year period between 2001 and 2008. This case report described the clinical, radiographic and histopathologic features of these KCOT. Of the 30 patients in whom KCOTs were diagnosed, 18 (60%) of the patients were male and 12 (40%) were female. The mean age of these patients was 34.2 years, with peak incidence occurring in the third decade of life. The lesions were mostly located in the mandible (74.2%) and in the maxilla (25.8%). There was a marked predilection to occur in the posterior mandible. Radiographically, 19 (63%) out of the 30 cases were unilocular type with a well demarcated border, while 11 cases (37%) were multilocularin appearance. Histopathologically, 73% of the cysts were lined with parakeratinized stratified squamous epithelium, while only 3% of the cysts were lined with mixed parakeratinized of orthokeratinized epithelium. 22 cases (73%) contained keratin in the lumen. A satellite cyst was observed in 14 cases (47%). All cysts were treated by enucleation. The recurrence rate was shown as 10% for 3 patients with a follow up period and recurred lesions were treated by re-enucleation.

We present two cases of multiple jaw cysts not associated with basal cell nevus syndrome. Case 1: a nine year-old boy visited CNU Hospital for orthodontic treatment and his radiographs showed cystic lesions surrounding the crowns of teeth #13 and #17 respectively, which were diagnosed as dentigerous cysts. Subsequently, two more cysts were found on his follow-up radiographs in 12 and 15 months. The two cysts were determined to be odontogenic keratocysts. The boy had no skeletal abnormalities and no skin lesions associated with basal cell nevus syndrome. Case 2: a fifty-eight year old man had three impacted third molars with pericoronal radiolucencies, which were diagnosed as dentigerous cysts. He had no additional abnormalities associated with basal cell nevus syndrome. Multiple jaw cysts can occur at any age, and periodic radiographic surveillance may be needed for any cases of impacted tooth.

Cyst is pathologic disease develops in hard tissue as well as soft tissue, which is lined by epithelium filled with liquid, semi-liquid, or air. Origins and symptoms of the cyst are various according to region, and symptoms are malocclusion, diversion of root, tooth mobility, periapical swelling, discoloration and lesion expansion, because the odontogenic cysts begin in the numerous rests of odontogenic epithelium. But almost cysts produce no symptoms unless secondary infection occurs. Treatment of small cysts may include extraction, endodontic therapy, and apical surgery. Treatment of a large cysts usually involves surgical removal (enucleation), Marsupialization(a method of decompression) or combination of two before mentioned. Bone graft is done for helping of bone defect healing at the same time of enucleation This clinical research from January 2000 to December 2005, analyzed by the age, sex, classification, size, region, treatment method, whether or not of bone graft of cyst in the jaw in Daegu Catholic University Hospital.

치성각화성낭종(Odontogenic keratocyst, OKC)은 치체(dental lamina)로부터 발생하는데, 모든 악골 낭의 $5{\sim}17$% 정도를 차지하며 낭의 내부는 이장상피로부터 유래한 점액성이나 치즈양 물질인 케라틴(keratin)으로 채워져 있다. 치성낭 중 가장 높은 재발률을 보인다는 것이 이 낭의 중요한 특징이다. 간혹 기저층에서 인접 결체조직 벽으로 돌기가 증식하기도 하며 결체조직 벽 내에 존재하는 치성 상피조직 섬의 증식이 위성 소낭을 발생시키기도 한다. 이들 소낭들이 치성각화성낭종의 높은 재발률의 원인으로 여겨진다. 치성각화성낭종은 다양한 연령층에서 발견되나, 20대와 30대에서 호발한다. 남성에서 다소 호발하며 하악, 특히 제3대구 치와 하악지 부위에서 자주 발생한다. 대개 피질골의 팽융에 의해 처음 발견되며 매복치와 관련되어 있고 일반적으로는 증상이 없지만 동통과 감염이 나타날 수도 있다. 흡인시 걸쭉한 노란 치즈양 물질인 케라틴이 관찰되며 특히 재발이 잘 된다. 치성 각화낭의 중요한 특징 중의 하나는 병소가 피질골의 팽창을 많이 유발시키지 않으면서 악골의 내면을 따라 성장한다 는 것이다. 치성각화성낭종화낭은 인접 치아를 변위시키고 흡수시킬 수 있으나 함치성낭보다는 정도가 심하지 않다. 하악관을 하방으로 변위시키기도 하며 상악 병소의 경우는 상악동을 침범해서 상악동 전체를 차지하기도 한다. 본 증례는 7세 10개월 된 여아의 하악 우측 제2유구치 부위에 발생한 치성각화성낭종에 대한 증례로써 전신마취하 낭종적 출술을 시행하였다. 낭종에 포함된 제1,2유구치, 유견치 및 제1소구치 치배를 발거하였으며, 현재 공간유지장치를 장착후 주기적으로 내원중이다.

Dentigerous cysts are common odontogenic cysts that are associated with the crown of the tooth and typically develop from single lesions. Bilateral and multiple dentigerous cysts are very rare and occur in patients with syndromic conditions. This paper presents a case report of a 15-year-old male patient that experienced non-syndromic bilateral dentigerous cysts that simultaneously occurred in all four dental quadrants around the unerupted third molars. Clinicians should confirm the extent of cystic lesions using a panoramic view and computed tomography, and should keep the possibility of bilateral dentigerous cysts in mind as a potential diagnosis, even in a non-syndromic patient.

Purpose: This study reviewed the common conditions associated with displacement of inferior alveolar nerve canal. Materials and Methods: General search engines and specialized databases including Google Scholar, Pub Med, Pub Med Central, Science Direct, and Scopus were used to find relevant studies by using keywords such as "mandibular canal", "alveolar canal", "inferior alveolar nerve canal", "inferior dental canal", "inferior mandibular canal" and "displacement". Results: About 120 articles were found, of which approximately 70 were broadly relevant to the topic. We ultimately included 37 articles that were closely related to the topic of interest. When the data were compiled, the following 8 lesions were found to have a relationship with displacement of mandibular canal: radicular/residual cysts, dentigerous cyst, odontogenic keratocyst, aneurysmal bone cyst, ameloblastoma, central giant cell granuloma, fibrous dysplasis, and cementossifying fibroma. Conclusion: When clinicians encounter a lesion associated with displaced mandibular canal, they should first consider these entities in the differential diagnosis. This review would help dentists make more accurate diagnoses and develop better treatment plans according to patients' radiographs.

To investigate epithelial cell proliferation reactivity in the odontogenic cysts, the expression of c-erbB-2 oncoprotein by epithelial lining was studied in odontogenic keratocyst(OKC, n=10), dentigerous cyst(DC, n=12), radicular cyst(RC, n=12) and normal dental follicle(n=7). The c-erbB-2 immunoreactivity was studied using a streptavidine- biotin- peroxidase method with polyclonal rabbit antihuman antibody to c-erbB-2 oncoprotein which is known to react with formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded sections and the intensity of staining was determined by manually. In all of 10(100%) OKCs, showed positive expression for c-erbB-2 oncoprotein compared with 10/12(83.3%) in DCs, 11/12(91.7%) in RCs and 5/7(71.4%) in normal dental follicles. The expression within OKC was higher than that of DC, RC and dental follicle but statistically not significant(p>0.05) and but may reflects underlying genetic defect. These results demonstrate differences in c-erbB-2 expression between the epithelial linings of the three major odontogenic cyst types, indicating differences in proliferation activity and differentiation processes within these lesions. And, in particular, these results are able to explain the peculiar aggressive growth pattern of OKC.

The author has studied histopathologically on the 24 cases of precancerous lesions 14 cases of benigh tumors and 3 cases of odontogenic cysts transformed to malignancy. The results are as follows: 1. On the 4 cases of leukoplakias, could observed precancerous changes such as hyperkeratosis, dyskeratosis and indistinct basement membrane. 2. The proliferative epithelium in the chronic inflammatory gingivitis, revealed precancerous conditions such as loss of polarity, mitotic figures with cellular pleomorphism and dyskeratosis. 3. The proliferative epithelial islands in the 2 cases of epitheliated dental granulomas could observe the cellualr malignancy. 4. Oral tuberculous lesions can become precancerous lesions inducing cancerous proliferation. 5. Oral benign tumors such as fibromas, salivary mixed tumors and ameloblastomas can be regarded as precancerous condition that the more recurrent they become the more likely they may be to transforme malignancy. 6. The proliferation of covering epithelium in the odontogenic cysts needs attention as its possible transformation to a precancerous condition.
