Abstrakt: Glandular odontogenic cyst, which was first reported in 1988, is an extremely rare lesion that was classified as a developmental odontogenic epithelial cyst by the World Health Organization in 1992 and in 2017. Here, we report two patients with glandular odontogenic cysts who presented at our clinic with the chief complaint of swelling of the mandible. Case 1 was 44-year-old female patient and case 2 was a 34-year-old male patient. Orthopantomography and computed tomography revealed a well-defined unilocular radiolucent lesions. The buccal cortical bone showed expanding and thinning. The mandibular canal was located below the lesion. After the biopsy, complete enucleation with the removal of the cystic lining and curettage were performed. Based on the results of histopathological examinations, both cases were diagnosed as glandular odontogenic cyst. Both patient's postoperative courses were uneventful during three years (case 1) and six months (case 2) post-treatment follow-up period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
