Suspected Lateral Periodontal Cyst Presenting Concurrently with Canine Acanthomatous Ameloblastoma in a 2-Year-Old Standard Poodle.
Journal of Veterinary Dentistry 2017 September
Lateral periodontal cysts (LPCs) are odontogenic epithelial cysts composed of nonkeratinized epithelial cells that are in the category of developmental cysts, rather than inflammatory cysts. Lateral periodontal cysts are rare both in people and domestic animals; they are associated with vital teeth and located lateral to a tooth root. Lateral periodontal cysts are typically asymptomatic lesions that are characterized radiographically as a unilocular lucency with well-defined corticated borders. Canine acanthomatous ameloblastoma (CAA) is the most common odontogenic neoplasm in dogs and rarely presents as a cystic lesion. This case report describes the diagnosis and treatment of a cyst that occurred as a swelling apical to a gingival mass that was diagnosed histologically as CAA. Surgical management by conservative gingivectomy, cyst enucleation, and bone grafting was an effective treatment in this patient.
