Abstract
SummaryThe odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is well known for its tendency to recur, potential aggressive behaviour and defined histopathological feature. OKC occurrence in the maxilla is unusual and its appearance in the maxillary sinus very uncommon. This article reports two distinct cases of OKCs associated with unerupted molars in the maxillary sinus of two boys. The lesions were surgically treated and no recurrence has been observed on follow-up. OKC clinical features and treatment are discussed.
