2-Staged Surgical Protocol for Management of Large Odontogenic Keratocyst.

The World Health Organisation classification and the treatment protocol for the odontogenic keratocyst (OKC), previously referred to as the keratocystic odontogenic tumour, were examined based on a study of the literature. Because not all OKCs have an identifiable protein patched homolog mutation, the idea of changing the management protocol for OKC in response to this shift in tumour category was met with scepticism and was not widely adopted. This study's objective was to outline a successful management plan for an odontogenic keratocyst in a patient who was 23 years old.
