Abstract

We report five cases of odontogenic maxillary cyst (three cases of radicular cyst and two cases of dentigerous cyst). All patients were operated on by endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). Cyst walls were partially extirpated in the case of radicular cyst and totally extirpated in the case of dentiger ous cyst. The causative tooth could be preserved in two of three cases in radicular cyst. In the case of dentigerous cyst, the causative tooth was extirpated in all cases. After the surgery, no recurrence was observed in all cases. The ESS treatment of odontogenic maxillary cyst has an advantage in terms of lower risk of operative invasion and infection. The ESS treatment is useful in cases where a large radicular cyst or a dentigerous cyst has extended to the maxillary sinus or nasal cavity.
