Cyst Cyst
KRAMER-1974KRAMER-1974Definition :
Cyst is defined as a pathological cavity Cyst is defined as a pathological cavity having fluid, semi-fluid or gaseous having fluid, semi-fluid or gaseous
contents that are not created by the contents that are not created by the accumulation of pus; frequently, but not accumulation of pus; frequently, but not
always, is lined by an epitheliumalways, is lined by an epithelium
Killey & Kay -1966
• Cyst is an abnormal cavity in hard and soft tissues which contain fluid, semifluid, or gas and is often encapsulated and lined by epithelium.
CLASSIFICATION OF CYSTS CLASSIFICATION OF CYSTS (W.H.O)(W.H.O)
• A. EPITHELIAL
1. Odontogenic
a) Developmental: i ) Primordial cyst (Keratocyst) ii) Gingival cyst of infants iii) Gingival cyst of adult iv) Lateral periodontal cyst v) Dentigerous cyst (Follicular) vi) Eruption cyst vii) Calcifying odontogenic cyst
b. Inflammatory: i) Radicular cystii) Residual cystiii) Inflammatory collateral cystiv) Paradental cyst
2. Non odontogenic Cysts: i) Nasopalatine duct cyst (incisive canal)ii) Median palatine, Median alveolar & Median mandibular cystiii) Nasolabial cyst ( Nasoalveolar cyst)iv) Globulomaxillary cyst
B. NON EPITHELIAL CYSTS
1. Simple bone cyst (Traumatic, Solitary, hemorrhagic bone cyst)
2. Aneurysmal bone cyst
II) CYSTS ASSOCIATED WITH
MAXILLARY ANTRUM• Benign mucosal cyst of maxillary antrum
• Surgical ciliated cyst of maxilla.
III) CYSTS OF THE SOFT TISSUES OF THE MOUTH, FACE & NECK 1) Dermoid and epidermoid cysts 2) Branchial cyst (Lympho epithelial) 3) Thyroglossal duct cyst 4) Anterior median lingual cyst 5) Oral cyst with gastric and intestinal epithelium 6) Cystic hygroma 7) Cysts of the salivary glands 8) Parasitic cysts: Hydatid cyst: Cysticercus Cellulosal

DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES WATCH BEFORE THE
CATCH• CLINICAL FINDINGS• Signs and symptoms of a jaw lesion depend
on the dimension of the lesion.• Small cysts – Detected at an early stage as a
corollary to routine radiographic examination.
• Large cysts – Usually in case of a typical odontogenic cyst “expansion” of the labial or buccal aspect of the alveolar bone occurs.
Cont……Cont……
• Odontogenic cyst in the ramus or third molar region can cause Expansion of the lingual aspect alone.
• Expansion of both the inner and outer bony margins is indicative of a lesion, other than a cyst.
EXPANSION
• Growing cyst causes a locally discernible bulging of the External bony surface
• Increase in size – Subperiosteal bone formation
• Early stage – Smooth, hard, painless prominence
• later expands to make the outer cortex thin with out micro fractures of the outer cortex
• “ PING PONG BALL” CONSISTENCY
ELASTIC• The bone covering centre of the
convexity becomes thinned and can be indented with pressure as the cyst growth proceeds
• The term “ELASTIC” is used to describe this consistency
• Micro Fracture Of The Outer Cortex Seen

INCIDENCE OF VARIOUS CYSTS IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE DENTAL
ARCH
• Periodontal cyst – Anywhere in the dental arch
• Dentigerous cyst – Associated with impacted molars, displaced canines, premolars and third molars
• Fissural cyst – Mostly Confined to the upper jaw & in the region of anatomical bony fusion
Cont….Cont….
• Solitary bone cyst – Present only in the mandible
• Odontogenic Keratocyst – Lower third molar area and extending in to the ramus
AND mandibular canine regions
OTHER CLINICAL FINDINGSOTHER CLINICAL FINDINGS……
• Loosening of teeth
• Involvement of neurovascular bundle
• Presence of sinus tract
SYMPTOMS
Small cysts – AsymptomaticInitial symptoms – Pain and swelling due to infection
Large cysts – Pathological fracture in the weaker part jaw associated with pain and swelling.Edentulous – Displacement of denture Discoloration and loosening of tooth
INVESTIGATIONSTo see through
RADIOGRAPHIC EXAMINATION
& ASPIRATION
RADIOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATIONS
• Well defined round or oval area of radiolucency circumscribed by a sharp radiopaque margin
• Radiographic variations possible depending on the type of the cyst, its location and the degree of bone destruction and expansion
• Certain odontogenic and normal anatomic structures mimic radiolucencies suggestive of cyst formation
Dentigerous cystDentigerous cyst
Odontogenic keratocystOdontogenic keratocyst
Dental cystDental cyst
Radicular cystRadicular cyst
ASPIRATION
• Aspiration is done with a wide bore needle• Aspirated fluid – Straw colored fluid containing
glary cholesterol crystals, provisional diagnosis would be a dental cyst
• Keratin flakes (White cheesy material )• Aspiration of air – Penetration in to the antrum• Failure to aspirate fluid or air – Solid lesion
