to evaluate the frequency of keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KOT) in the Oral Surgery Service (OSS) of the University Hospital Clementino Fraga Filho of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (HUCFF / UFRJ), with respect to recurrence rate, gender, age of recurrence and location of the injury Methods: clinical records were reviewed and histopathological reports of KOT patients of the HUCFF/UFRJ between 2002 and 2012. Patients diagnosed with KOT were divided into two groups for the occurrence of relapse: positive (n=6) and negative (n=19) Results: regarding the location, there was a predilection for the mandible. In the average age of patients in the positive group was 40.5 and the negative group, 35.53. In the distribution by gender, positive group showed equal distribution, different from that observed in the negative group, which showed a predilection for males Conclusion: KOT was the second most frequent injury in our patients, recurrence was lower among males and had the jaw as most affected location.

Odontogenic keratocysts are known for their aggressive and recurrent nature. Clinically and radiographically distinguishing between ameloblastoma and odontogenic keratocysts can be challenging due to their similar locations, age of affected patients, and multilocular appearance. Ameloblastomas co-occurring with odontogenic cysts or other odontogenic lesions have been documented as combined lesions.

Ki67 as a proliferation marker plays a critical role in assessing cellular activity in various pathological tissues, including cystic lesions. Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) and radicular cysts (RCs) are two common types of jaw cysts that exhibit distinct biological behaviors, particularly in their proliferative patterns. OKCs are known for their aggressive nature and high recurrence rate, while RCs are typically less aggressive and exhibit lower recurrence risk.

This study aims to construct a prediction model of maxillary sinus cyst and explore its clustering pattern by cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) technique and machine learning (ML) method to provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and clinical management of maxillary sinus cyst.
Methods: In this study, 6000 CBCT images of maxillary sinus from 3093 patients were evaluated to document the possible influencing factors of maxillary sinus cysts, including gender, age, odontogenic factors, and anatomical factors.

The treatment of odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) continues to be a contentious issue in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Despite extensive research and systematic reviews, no definitive protocol or consensus has been established. This case series investigates how OKCs can be treated through a thorough approach combining preoperative investigation - fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) - to confirm the diagnosis of OKC, followed by treatment of the combined surgical approach of enucleation, peripheral ostectomy, and chemical cauterization using modified Carnoy's solution under local or general anesthesia.

Dentigerous cysts frequently develop as odontogenic cysts in the oral cavity that can occasionally progress to neoplasms. Tumor from dentigerous cysts is uncommon, with only 42 occurrences documented in the literature. This case report describes a 73-year-old male who developed primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma after a dentigerous cyst.
