Squamous cell carcinoma arising in a residual cyst. A case report

K G van der Wal et al. Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg. 1993 Dec.

Abstract

A case of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) arising in a mandibular residual cyst in a 62-year-old man is presented. The treatment included enucleation followed by primary closure. Histologic examination revealed a poorly differentiated SCC in the cyst lining without invasion through the connective tissue wall. Eight and a half years later, the patient was still free from recurrence.
