Description
Laurianne Giraudeau and colleagues describe treatment of a rare jaw cyst in a 2026 case report. A multilocular odontogenic keratocyst is a benign but aggressive lesion that often returns after removal. It usually grows in the back of the jaw, yet this one sat at the front, in the chin region.
The cyst was found by chance in a thirty-year-old woman with no symptoms pointing to it. Treatment combined root canal work, full removal through the mouth's inner fold, and instant rebuild with a bone-like graft material. A bacterial infection in the lesion needed three months of antibiotics. Scans at three months showed even new bone, a preserved nerve, and no regrowth so far.
