  • Title: Odontogenic keratocyst with mural cartilaginous metaplasia: a case report and a review of the literature.
    Author: Fornatora ML, Reich RF, Chotkowski G, Freedman PD.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod; 2001 Oct; 92(4):430-4. PubMed ID: 11598579.
    Abstract:
    Odontogenic keratocyst displaying foci of cartilaginous metaplasia in the connective tissue wall has been previously reported but is considered rare. We report a case of a 66-year-old man with an odontogenic keratocyst of the mandible. Benign-appearing metaplastic cartilage was observed in the wall of this cyst, as well as in the recurrence. A benign clinical course is documented, and a review of the literature detailing 6 previously reported cases is presented.
