Can clinical and radiological features predict recurrence in solitary keratocystic odontogenic tumors?

Patients with recurrences were significantly older than those without. Interestingly, those cases, which were considered KCOTs before surgery, were significantly more likely not to recur within 5 years of follow-up. Most radiological features did not differ between nrKCOT and rKCOT on the basis of panoramic radiography only.
