Introduction

A cyst has been traditionally defined as a pathological epithelium lined cavity usually containing liquid or semi-material (Killey and Kay - 1966). The currently accepted definition is the one invented by Kramer in 1974 as "a pathological cavity having fluid, solid or gaseous content and is often but not always lined by epithelium.

Jaw cysts are often lined by a layer of the epithelium and connective tissue layer and the underlying layers can be dissected easily from the bone. The thickness and configuration of this surface varies with the type of cyst. These cysts develop either by the proliferation of epithelial debris in the jaw or the transformation of cystic neoplastic tissues.

Classification

Many classifications have been published cysts of the jaw. Most of them are quite satisfactory in the clinical evaluation and practice.

The classification of I. Robinson (1945)

cyst development

A) from odontogenic tissue

1. periodontal cyst

(A) or type root apex of the root

(B) lateral type

(C) residual type

1. dentigerous cyst
2. Primordial cyst

B) type non-dental tissues

1. cyst median (median palatine cyst)
2. incisive canal cyst
3. cyst globulo

II. Kruger classification (1964)

A) congenital cyst

1. Thyroglossal
2. Branchiogenic
3. Dermoid

B) Cyst Development

1. from non-dental

a) type fissure

1. Naso-alveolar
2. Median
3. incisive canal cyst (nasopalatine)
4. Globulo

b) the type of retention

1. mucocoele
2. ranula
3. dental origin

a) periodontal

1. Periapical
2. lateral
3. residual

b) primary

c) dentigerous

III. Lucas Classification (1964)

Intraosseous cysts

A) fissure cyst

a) Median mandibular

b) median palatal

c) naso-palatine

d) globulo

e) naso-labial

B) Odontogenic cysts

a) development

1. primary
2. dentigerous

b) inflammatory
