title: [Intraosseous developmental cysts of the jaw. 1].
abstract: Discussing the central intraosseous developmental odontogenic cysts of the jaws the Authors have followed the classification suggested by Hoffman et Al. that lists the lesions according to their biological activity. After a short foreword about the most important stages of the embryological dental development, grouped in six phases, the Authors referred to the principal concepts emerging from the literature about the most aggressive developmental odontogenic cysts of the jaws: the primordial cyst and the odontogenic keratocyst of which they have outlined a definition, and referred to the clinical, radiological, ethiological and microscopical data, the treatment and the differential diagnosis.
