Abstract
Background Odontogenic inflammatory maxillary cysts constitute pathology for which clinical, radiological and evolutionary aspects are considerably polymorphic. For small cystic lesions non-surgical endodontic treatment is used. Larger lesions, however, have a natural tendency to grow and weaken the bone (as well as an inflammatory risk) may be treated by surgery. Case presentation We present a case report of surgical resection of a large maxillary cyst on a patient who previously had multiple dental extractions until complete edentation. Conclusion Great cystic maxillary lesions are relatively rare. A definitive diagnosis cannot be determined based on the history, clinical and radiographic evaluation. A correct pre-operative diagnosis is very difficult and can only be possible after histological examination. Keywords: Dental-radicular cyst, Radiolucency, Maxilla, EnucleationKeywords
