A botryoid odontogenic cyst (BOC) which recurred 4 times over a period of 9 years is presented. Immunocytochemical comparison of cytokeratin composition of the cyst epithelium with that of the overlying oral epithelium showed distinct differences. The cyst epithelium expressed keratins typical of both simple and nonkeratinizing squamous epithelia. The keratin profile of BOC is in line with previous findings on odontogenic epithelia, thus confirming its odontogenic origin.
本文报告了一例葡萄状牙源性囊肿(BOC),该囊肿在9年时间内复发4次。对囊肿上皮细胞角蛋白成分与覆盖其上的口腔上皮细胞角蛋白成分进行免疫细胞化学比较,结果显示存在明显差异。囊肿上皮表达了典型的单纯性和非角化性鳞状上皮的角蛋白。BOC的角蛋白谱与先前关于牙源性上皮的研究结果一致,从而证实了其牙源性起源。
