Abstract
A 60-year-old man was referred to an oral and maxillofacial surgeon with discomfort caused by pressure on the left-hand side of the maxilla. Examination revealed a very elevated third molar in contact with the orbital floor and infundibulum, and, possibly, a follicular cyst. On account of the threat to the orbital floor, it was first decided to decompress the cyst and place an in situ drain. After 4 months, the tooth and cyst could be removed and the diagnosis of a follicular cyst was confirmed.Auteursinformatie.
