title: [Globulomaxillary cysts].
abstract: Globulomaxillary cyst is a non odontogenic cyst arising in the upper lateral incisor and canine region. Evaluation of clinical picture and careful histologic examination are essential for distinguishing it from other odontogenic and non odontogenic cystic growths. Presenting five new cases of globulomaxillary cysts, authors discuss and accept the "fissural" histogenetic hypothesis.
