The occurrence of an atypical cystic lesion of the mandible in a 13-year-old boy is described. At first, a diagnosis could not be made. The biopsy specimen showed features resembling an ordinary follicular cyst, together with areas in which distinct alterations in the epithelium were noticed. These alterations seemed to be in accordance with findings of Vickers and Gorlin in cases of early or unicystic ameloblastoma. The lesion was treated by enucleation. After almost three years, no recurrence has been noticed. Long-term follow-up care is necessary. The case illustrates the obvious need for meticulous histologic examination of every cystic lesion of the jaw.
本文描述了一名13岁男孩下颌骨出现非典型囊性病变的病例。起初，无法做出诊断。活检标本显示出类似普通滤泡囊肿的特征，同时还发现上皮有明显改变的区域。这些改变似乎与维克斯和戈林在早期或单囊性成釉细胞瘤病例中的发现一致。该病变通过摘除术进行治疗。近三年来，未发现复发情况。仍需要长期随访。该病例表明，对颌骨的每一个囊性病变进行细致的组织学检查显然是必要的。
