SUMMARY: Cystic lesions of the jaws are common pathologic entity. Aim: The analysis of a case series of cystic lesions of the jaws. Material and Method: Retrospective study of the cases of cystic lesions, which were managed in our department during the years 2010 - 2012 was conducted. The following inclusion criteria of a case in the study were defined: maximum diameter of the lesion at least 2cm, surgical treatment of the lesion under general anesthesia and postoperative follow-up of the patient for at least one year. Results: 56 cases were analyzed. Average age of the patients was 48.2 years and the average maximum diameter of the lesions was 3.86cm. Almost all cases were managed by enucleation (49/56– 87.5%). Decompression was implemented in 5 cases (8.9%). In all cases, except for one where recurrence was observed, the result was cure of the lesion. The use of bone graft was correlated in statistically significant degree with seemingly quicker bone regeneration, but also with an increased risk of immediate postoperative wound dehiscence. Conclusions: Enucleation as well as decompression were proven to be good methods, as their use provided satisfactory results in all cases. The results of bone allograft application were controversial and therefore its use must be studied more thoroughly.
KEY WORDS: cysts, enucleation, decompression, bone graft
