Sažetak
Objective: Cysts occur in the jaws more commonly than in any other bone due to the presence of developmental, odontogenic, residual, epithelial tissue. The present study aimed at providing a clinical and epidemiological analysis of patients with cystic lesions, treated at the Clinics of Maxillo-Facial Surgery, University Hospital, Plovdiv, Bulgaria. Material and Methods: Six hundred twenty one cysts of the jaws in 594 patients were examined. The odontogenic cysts were 97.1%±0.67%. The radicular cysts were the most common type of jaw cysts (435 cysts, 70.1%), dentigerous cysts (146 cysts, 23.5%) were the most common in the first and the second decades. The residual cysts were 112 (18%). The average age of patients with jaw
cysts was 35,30±0,73 years. Results: Jaw cysts were more frequent in the maxilla in comparison with mandible (t=2.33; Р<0.05). The radicular cysts more frequently involved the alveolar bridge of the upper jaw (204 cysts of 435 radicular cysts, 46.9%). Conclusion: The dentigerous cysts developed more frequently in the lower jaw (106 cysts of 146 dentigerous cysts, 72.6%), especially in the mandible body (89 cysts, 61%).
