Treatment of mandibular glandular odontogenic cyst with immediate reconstruction: case report and 5-year follow-up.
Glandular odontogenic cysts of the jaw are rare with unusual histopathological features, well-defined limits, and a high recurrence rate when treated conservatively. We describe a 37-year-old white man with such a cyst of the right mandible that was resected, and at follow-up 5 years later there were no signs of recurrence.
