Resumo

The glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is an uncommon jawbone cyst with a challenging diagnosis because of the presence of several clinical and histopathologic overlaps with other odontogenic lesions and central mucoepidermoid carcinoma. To date, less than 200 cases of GOC have been published in the literature with reliable clinical and histopathologic information. Furthermore, the lack of a well-documented GOC case series impairs a more detailed understanding about the biological behavior and appropriate management of the lesion. Therefore, in this study, we report 3 well-documented cases of GOC in the literature. In one of the cases, the incisional biopsy was misdiagnosed as a dentigerous cyst, and the lesion recurred. Therefore, we also discuss key points regarding the diagnosis and treatment of GOC.
