Abstract

Glandular odontogenic cyst is rare developmental odontogenic cyst of jaws,that ranges from 0.012 to 1.3%. Generally, this cyst is seen in the anterior areas of the mandible and with the mean age being 49 years. GOC is often misdiagnosed because of its overlapping histopathological features with other odontogenic cysts such as lateral periodontal cyst (LPC) or Botryoid cyst and Central low-grade Mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Cyst have an unpredictable, potentially aggressive behavior, and has the propensity to grow in large size with relatively high recurrence rate. Here, we present a case of GOC in a 50 year old female patient in left anterior maxillary region.

Keywords: Cilia, glandular odontogenic cyst, mucous cell, hobnail cells, sialo-odontogenic cyst.
