  • Title: Odontogenic keratocyst: diagnosis and treatment.
    Author: Wetmore SJ, Billie JD, Howe A, Wetzel W.
    Journal: Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg; 1983 Apr; 91(2):167-72. PubMed ID: 6191266.
    Abstract:
    The odontogenic keratocyst is a keratinizing squamous epithelium-lined cyst that occurs in the mandible and maxilla. In 5% to 10% of patients the keratocysts may be a manifestation of the basal cell nevus syndrome. The recurrence rate after surgical therapy for odontogenic keratocysts varies from 10% to 63%.
