Odontogenic keratocysts are major criteria in the diagnosis of Gorlin syndrome and can occur on both jaws, achieving great proportions without intervention. The occurrence of a keratocyst extending to the orbital floor has not been reported in the literature so far. In 2019, a 43-year-old female with the diagnosis of Gorlin syndrome and previous jaw surgical interventions presented with an extensive cystic lesion in the left maxilla leading to bone reabsorption of the orbital floor without ocular symptoms. The patient also presented another lesion in the right mandibular ramus. The major lesion was enucleated under general anesthesia through infraorbital and maxillary vestibular approaches, requiring reconstruction of the orbital floor with a titanium mesh plate. The mandibular lesion was enucleated through an intraoral approach. Anatomopathologic analysis confirmed the odontogenic keratocyst hypothesis on both materials. The patient recovered well and has had no recurrence or residual lesion and no ocular symptoms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
