Abstract
Simple bonecysts (SBC) have been a recognized entity since 1929, when they were first described by Lucas. In 1946, Rushton described the inner walls of the cyst, consisting of bone and no pathological or chemical content. This intraosseous entity, is also known by a variety of synonyms including solitary bone cyst, traumatic bone cyst, hemorrhagic bone cyst, unicameral cyst, idiopathic bone cavity and progressive bone cyst or cavity. There are few clinical features within the jaws, and the diagnosis is made mainly from radiographical findings. The most frequently affected sites are the region between inferior canines and third molars, and secondly in the mandibular symphysis. SBC of the condyle are rare, and there are approximately 15 cases in the current literature.Treatment of the case will be described, and a literature review of the disease and its management will be presented.
