Abstract :
The diagnostic dilemma is possessed when one
lesion that mimics the other.1One of the most prevalent
pathologic disorders in the alveolar bone are periapical
lesions, which arise from necrotic tooth pulp.2
. Multiple
pathogenic entities are included in odontogenic cysts of
the jaws. “A benign uni- or multicystic, intraosseous
tumour of odontogenic origin, with a characteristic
lining of parakeratinized stratified squamous epithelium
and potential for aggressive, infiltrative behaviour,” is
the definition of keratocystic odontogenic tumour
(KCOT).” There are two important diagnostic problems
with OKC. Firstly, they frequently exhibit active
epithelial growth, leading some experts to speculate that
they would be better classified as neoplasms rather than
cysts. Second, two patterns of occurrence are recognized:
single (or irregular) and as a part of the BCNS.3
Numerous investigations have focused on the aggressive
clinical behavior and frequent recurrence after
curettage, suggesting that the OKC epithelial lining may
have some intrinsic growth capacity.5 This case of an
odontogenic keratocyst with changed epithelial activity
that mimics a radicular cyst is presented in light of the
epithelial behavior.
