Abstract
|
|
|
Cyst is a closed sac, having a distinct membrane and division compared to the nearby tissue. Most cysts in the oro-axillofacial area are odontogenic origin and found most commonly by oral and maxillofacial surgeons.
Enucleation is considered as a definitive therapy in the management of these cysts. However, to select the treatment method for large cyst, consideration of position of the cyst, size and accessibility to main structure are needed. Marsupialization is a minimal invasive technique to treat large odontogenic cyst and tumor without damage to adjacent important structures. This study was undertaken to describe three cases of odontogenic cysts and tumors of jaws that were successfully treated with enucleation after marsupialization.
