Comparison of Recurrence Rates of Odontogenic Keratocyst and Ameloblastoma following surgical excision and peripheral ostectomy in the Maxilla
Surgical excision with peripheral ostectomy appears to be a viable conservative treatment option for both OKC and ameloblastoma in the maxilla, with a relatively low recurrence rate observed in this study. Notably, recurrences observed even after long-term follow-up indicate the necessity for prolonged monitoring.
