ODONTOGENIC KERATOCYST A Relapse that Refuses to Rest - A Case Report

Odontogenic Keratocyst (OKC) is a benign cystic neoplasm that can often be misinterpreted radiographically as a dentigerous, lateral periodontal, residual, or fissural cyst. Initially, it was thought to originate from primordial odontogenic epithelium and was therefore referred to as a primordial cyst. However, the true nature of OKC—now widely recognized as a Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumor (KCOT)—remains a matter of debate.
