Epidermoid cysts are generally benign neoplastic lesions, the etiology of which is unclear and is mainly related to epithelial cells left in the tissues during the embryonic period and traumatically implanted in the tissues. The most common intraosseous sites are the phalanges and the skull. Epidermoid cysts occurring in the jaws are clinically rare. In this paper, we report a case of epidermoid cyst occurring in the mandible with embedded teeth and discuss the etiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of epidermoid cysts in the jaws in the context of the relevant literature.
表皮样囊肿一般为良性肿瘤性病变,其病因尚不明确,主要与胚胎期遗留于组织内的上皮细胞及外伤性植入组织内有关。最常见的骨内发生部位为指(趾)骨和颅骨。颌骨内发生的表皮样囊肿临床上较为少见。本文报道 1 例下颌骨含牙表皮样囊肿,并结合相关文献就颌骨表皮样囊肿的病因、临床表现、诊断和治疗进行讨论。
