Resumo
Objectives: To analyze the clinical and radiographic
features of odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) from a Brazilian oral
and maxillofacial pathology reference center.
Study Design: Data regarding sex, ethnicity, age, time
of evolution, symptoms, location, radiographic features, size,
treatment, and recurrence of OKC were collected.
Results: Among 37,029 oral biopsies, 1915 (5.2%) were
odontogenic cyst, of which 300 (0.8%) met the criteria of OKC.
Males (51.3%) of African descent (57.1%) were more prevalent.
Individuals in their third decade (31.4%) were more affected.
Asymptomatic lesions (79.3%) were reported by most of the
patients. Radiolucent (100.0%), well-defined (27.9%), unilocular
(28.4%) lesions with a mean size of 3.5 cm on the posterior man dible (48.9%) were more commonly found. Impacted teeth were
associated in 30 cases. The percentage of cases surgically
excised was 65.8%. Recurrence was seen in 67 patients (25.4%).
Conclusions: The findings of this study were similar in
many ways to previous reports. However, concerning skin color,
the literature shows a greater number of cases in Caucasian individuals.
