Abstract

Follicullar cysts occurr frequetry in the region of the mandibular wisdom teeth, maxilla anterior teeth, mandibular premolar teeth, but they arerare in the maxillary sinus. We report a case of a giant follicullar cyst in the maxillary sinus.<BR>The patient was a 13-years-old girl who visited a dental clinic for dental caries treatment. The pulp of the second molar tooth of upper right was extracted. The tooth was vital, but there was a large amount of pus from the root canals.<BR>After about two months, she visited our hospital due to buccal swelling and trisumus.<BR>We extracted the second molar tooth under clinical diagnosis of the odontogenic maxillary sinusitis, but the oroantral fistula at the extraction cavity did not disappear.<BR>After two months, we performed a cavity close operation, A Caldwell-Luc operation and extracted the impacted wisdom tooth which we had recognised by X-ray examination in the left maxillary sinus using general anesthesia.<BR>At that time, we recognised a gigantic follicullar cyst that filled the left maxillary sinus and encleated it.
