To report a rare case of large radicular cyst-associated deciduous tooth and to discuss the importance of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in diagnosing the condition.
Radicular cyst is the most common cyst affecting the permanent teeth, but its occurrence in deciduous teeth is rare. Most of the radicular cysts are asymptomatic and are discovered accidentally when radiographs are taken. Conventional radiographs show two-dimensional images of three-dimensional objects. Cone beam computed tomography provides undistorted three-dimensional information of hard tissues and gives adequate spatial resolution.
A 7-year-old child, with a complaint of swelling in the maxillary anterior region, was diagnosed with radicular cyst in relation to primary maxillary right central incisor based on CBCT and histopathological features.
Early diagnosis and prompt treatment of radicular cyst in primary dentition is important to prevent damage to permanent tooth.

报告一例罕见的与乳牙相关的大型根端囊肿病例，并探讨锥形束计算机断层扫描（CBCT）在诊断该疾病中的重要性。
根端囊肿是影响恒牙最常见的囊肿，但其在乳牙中的发生较为罕见。大多数根端囊肿无症状，在拍摄X线片时偶然发现。传统X线片显示三维物体的二维图像。锥形束计算机断层扫描提供硬组织的无失真三维信息，并具有足够的空间分辨率。
一名7岁儿童，因上颌前部肿胀就诊，根据CBCT和组织病理学特征，诊断为与右上颌乳中切牙相关的根端囊肿。
乳牙列根端囊肿的早期诊断和及时治疗对于预防恒牙受损很重要。
