FRANCO ROBLEDO, Mario Nery et al. Orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst. A case report. An. Fac. Cienc. Méd. (Asunción) [online]. 2023, vol.56, n.2, pp.91-96. ISSN 1816-8949.  https://doi.org/10.18004/anales/2023.056.02.91.

The orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst is an odontogenic cyst of uncommon development. The jaws are the most common site of involvement. Cysts of the jaw with keratinization, the odontogenic keratocyst (OKC), and the orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst (OOC) have attracted the most attention. The case of a 34-year-old female patient is presented, with a 2-month history of progressively growing swelling in the region of the left maxillary sinus accompanied by mucopurulent rhinorrhea and purulent discharge from an oroantral fistula. Surgery is performed under general anesthesia, a cystic lesion with keratin content is verified in the maxillary sinus whose histopathology returns compatible with orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst.
