Sažetak
Botryoid cyst, a rare type of odontogenic cyst, is usually considered a multilocular variant of lateral periodontal cyst. It was first described in 1973, and up to the present less than a hundred cases have been reported in the literature. Botryoid cysts are characterized by a multilocular histologic finding and a higher risk of recurrence than lateral periodontal cysts. In this article, we present a case of botryoid cyst from our clinical practice, accompanied by literature review of previous cases reported in the literature so far. Study results showed that botryoid cysts mostly affected population in their fifties, with a slight female (53.5%) predominance over males (46.5%). The mandible was the most frequently affected region, accounting for 70 (83.3%) cases. Maxilla was only sporadically affected accounting for 14 (16.7%) cases. Radiographic appearance of botryoid cysts can be multilocular or unilocular. It is concluded that the recurrence rate is relatively high (30.1%), therefore long term follow up is needed.
