Abstract
A glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is an uncommon jawbone cyst of odontogenic origin with characteristic histological findings of a lined epithelium that contains mucous cells, ciliated cells, and intraepithelial gland-like structures. We herein report a case of GOC arising in the upper left back tooth region in a 31-year-old female patient. An IOPA radiograph revealed a well-defined unilocular radiolucent area extending from the distal aspect of the root of left first molar to the distal aspect of third molar on the same side. The patient was treated by extraction of 26, 27 & 28 followed by enucleation of the cystic lesion. The surgical specimen was histologically examined and diagnosed as a GOC.
