Odontogenic Keratocyst : A Review of Histogenesis,Classification,Clinical presentation,Genetic aspect, Radiographic picture ,Histopathology and treatment

Abstract
The odontogenic keratocyst (OKC), which makes up approximately 10% of odontogenic cysts, is a locally-aggressive cystic lesion that affects the maxilla or the mandible and is capable of causing major destruction. OKCs have been a topic of debate ever since they were discovered and named. The origin of OKC is still debatable, the OKC mostly occur intraosseusly and is thought to be derived from odon...
