Odontogenic keratocyst is a peculiar benign intraosseous lesion, recognized for its local and progressive invasive potential and high recurrence rate, which have led to its classification and reclassification.It constitutes 10-20% of odontogenic cysts and is the third most common cyst of the jaws, with peak incidence in the second and fourth decades.The aim of this report is to present a case study of an odontogenic keratocyst in a 27-year-old female patient, and to provide an overview of this lesion, highlighting their pertinent clinical, radiographic features as well as its surgical management.
