|
|
Clinically: 65-85% of all neonates
Clinically: 1-3 mm white/yellow pappules Histologically: keratin filled cysts lined by stratified squamous epithelium |
Palatal cysts of the newborn
|
|
Rare developmental cyst occuring in upper lip lateral to midline
|
Nasolabial Cyst
|
|
Caused by either
1. Fissural cyst from epithelial remnants trapped along line of fusion of maxillary, median nasal and lateral nasal process 2. Derived from misplaced epithelium of nasolacrimal duct |
Nasolabial cyst
|
|
Clinically: Swelling of upper lip lateral to midline causing elevation of ala of nose
Incidence: 40-50 yo adults, females, 10% bilateral |
Nasolabial cyst
|
|
Radiographic: generally abscent except for faint lucency due ot pressure resorption of underlying bone
Histology: cyst lined by pseudostratified columnar epithelium, goblet cells, & cilia |
Nasolabial cyst
|
|
Developmental cyst occurring in the maxilla in between the lateral & canine teeth
|
Globulomaxillary Cyst
|
|
Radiographically: "pear-shaped" radiolucency between maillary lateral & canine
|
Globulomaxillary Cyst
|
|
Odontogenic cysts
|
Globulomaxillary Cyst
|
|
Developmental cyst arisign from remnants of hte nasoplatine duct, an embryologic structure connecting the oral & nasal cavities in the area of hte incisive canal
|
Nasopalatine duct cyst
|
|
Developmental cyst arisign from remnants of the nasopalatine duct, an embryological structure connecting the oral & nasal cavities in hte area of the incisal canal
|
Nasopalatine Duct Cyst
|
|
Clinical Features:
-Most common non-odontogenic cyst of oral cavity -40-60yo, males -Sign & Symp: long-standing & intermittent swelling of anterior palate, drainage, pain -can also be asymptomatic -teeth vital unless trauma/caries |
Nasopalatine Duct Cyst
|
|
Radiograph:
-Round to oval to HEART-SHAPED radiolucency, sclerotic border, near midline of anterior maxilla b/t central incisors -Root resorption seen -Cyst confined to soft tissue |
Nasopalatine Duct Cyst
|
|
Histology:
Cyst lying: Stratified squamus, pseudostratified columnar ciliated, simple columnar, simple cuboidal, or combo -Wall of cyst contains nerves, blood vessels, occasional lobules of mucous glands, small islands of cartilage & chronic inflammation |
Nasopalatine Duct Cyst
|
|
Rare fissural cyst devloped from epithelium entrapped along embronic line of fusion of lateral palatal shelves of maxilla
|
Median palatal cyst
|
|
Cysts represent posteriorly positioned nasopalatine duct cysts
|
Median palatal cyst
|
|
Young adults, M=F
-Firm swelling of midline of hard palate posterior to palatine papilla -Radiograph: radiolucency in midlien of hard palate, divergence of roots of central incisors |
Median palatal cyst
|
|
histology: cyst lined most commonly by stratified squamous epithelium, occasionally respiratory (pseudostratified columnar ciliated) epithelium
|
Median Palatal cyst
|
|
-Non-inflamatory cyst occuring in midline of mandible
-No epiethelium exists to be intrapped -True cysts in this location are odontogenic |
Median mandibular cyst
|
