Abstract
Follicular cysts are frequently associated with a permanent tooth in the jaws, but rarely arise from deciduous teeth.We report on a 4-year-old boy with a follicular cyst of the second lower deciduous molar.On radiographic examination, an ovoid radiolucent area including a radiopaque mass considered to be the second deciduous molar was noted in the right mandibular region.The clinical diagnosis was a follicular cyst associated with the second lower deciduous molar, and the cyst and the second lower deciduous molar were removed.The final diagnosis was a follicular cyst originating from the second lower deciduous molar.
