Description
Pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, and the significance of extensive odontogenic residual cysts are discussed. Following illustration of the methodology of a cystostomy using CGI, the advantages and disadvantages of a cystostomy as compared to alternative cystectomy are explained. This is followed by a step-by-step demonstration of the surgical technique, which aims to form an open connection the extensive cyst cavity with the oral cavity. In contrast, cystostomy, which is relatively easy to perform, has an increased frequency of recurrence and, in rare cases, degeneration, especially in keratocysts. Further treatment options with an obturator, radiological follow-ups and long-term results conclude the topic.
