ABSTRACT
The odontogenic keratocystic tumor is a cystic tumor whose capsule is formed by squamous epithelium originating from dental lamina or from primordial odontogenic epithelium. Represents 10% of all cystic lesions of the jaws and 4 to 12% of all odontogenic tumors and rarely cause root resorption. The diagnosis is based on clinical and histological features; its most important differential diagnosis is with follicular cyst. The treatment of odontogenic keratocystic tumors is under constant debate as published relapse rate is high, although it is surgical varies depending on the specific factors to the patient, the tumor and the institution. It is presented a case of a white male patient, of 21 years old, who was attended in the dental consultation to present discomfort in the lower right jaw. It is diagnosed, treated and rehabilitated by an odontogenic keratocystic tumor.REFERENCES
