We report a case of the calcifying odontogenic cyst occurring on the left anterior mandible of a 41-year-old male with clinical and radiographic features which made it initially to be a lateral periodontal cyst. This unusual presentation of a calcifying odontogenic cyst is discussed and its significance for the clinician is reviewed. A calcifying odontogenic cyst may present some problems for the differential diagnosis both clinically and histopathologically. The differential diagnosis of a lesion occurring in a lateral periodontal location should include the calcifying odontogenic cyst.

The inflammatory paradental cyst has previously been described as the collateral inflammatory cyst, the inflammatory lateral periodontal cyst, the paradental cyst, or the mandibular infected buccal cyst. Clinical, radiographic, and histologic features of 29 inflammatory paradental cysts diagnosed over a 5-year period were studied. The cysts occurred in relation to a partly or fully erupted tooth with a vital pulp. Twenty-seven of the cysts were located in the mandible and the remaining two in the maxilla. The mandibular cysts were in all cases associated with a molar. The observation that the cysts are diagnosed within a few years after tooth eruption and the demonstration of a statistically significant difference (p = 0.001) in age distribution and in the type of tooth involved suggest that eruption is important for the development of the cysts. The consistent finding of a hyperplastic, nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium with an intense inflammation in the connective tissue is in accordance with the hypothesis that inflammation is important for the development of these cysts.

The lateral periodontal cyst is a rather infrequently reported odontogenic cyst. The cyst seems to develop in direct contact to the periodontal membrane of an erupted vital tooth. This type of cyst should not be confused with a radicular cyst in a lateral position developing as a consequence of inflammation from an infected or necrotic branch of the pulp canal. Several authors do not differentiate between the lateral periodontal cyst and the gingival cyst, but it seems justified to consider the lateral periodontal cysts as a separate entity of odontogenic cysts. In this origin of the lateral periodontal cyst is reviewed and several possibilities are discussed. It is concluded that the epithelial lining of this type of cysts most probably originates from the cell rests of Malassez. Case report of one lateral periodontal cyst is presented.

The objective of the present study was to review a series of 23 lateral periodontal cysts and 2 botryoid odontogenic cysts retrieved from the files of the State University of New York at Buffalo (SUNY) Oral Pathology Biopsy Service for epidemiologic characteristics as well as radiographic findings, clinical presentation, histopathologic features, and management. This study corroborated some previously established characteristics of the lesion but also revealed some surprising aberrations. A significant difference in the age range and mean age by gender was detected with the Student's t test within this population at the 0.05 level. The classic presentation of a lateral periodontal cyst seems to be that of an asymptomatic, small, ovoid, well-corticated radiolucency that occurs in an interradicular locus in the mandibular premolar segment of a middle-aged man. However, lateral periodontal cysts may manifest with pain and cause cortical perforation, may present as large expansile radiolucencies, may arise in the maxillary molar segment, and may develop in young females. Because of the tendency for aggressiveness of other lesions that may present with a similar picture, it is important to establish the final diagnosis of lateral periodontal cyst on a histologic basis in conjunction with the clinical and radiographic findings.

Lateral periodontal cysts account for 0.8% of all jaw cysts seen in our department. Published reports have indicated that they occur most frequently in the 5th to 7th decades, that there is a male preponderance and that they are located mainly in the mandibular canine-premolar region. In our own series of 20 cases, 10 were found in the anterior maxilla. We have distinguished unicystic and multicystic (including botryoid) varieties. They were lined predominantly or exclusively by thin reduced enamel epithelium-like tissue which contained many clear cells and epithelial thickenings referred to as plaques. Glycogen was present in the epithelium of two-thirds of our cases although not exclusively in the clear cells, many of which showed no positivity. Two of our examples of the botryoid variety were different histologically, being lined predominantly by non-keratinizing stratified squamous epithelium with crowded and pyknotic nuclei and no clear cells. One case contained melanin while another showed epithelial crypt formation and superficial palisaded low columnar cells as seen in the glandular odontogenic cyst. This raised the question of whether the latter may form part of the clinicopathologic spectrum of lateral periodontal cyst. The histogenesis of lateral periodontal cysts is uncertain but we favour origin from reduced enamel epithelium.

INTRODUCTION
The botryoid odontogenic cyst (BOC) is a developmental cyst of odontogenic epithelial origin considered as a rare multilocular variety of lateral periodontal cyst (WHO 1992). This cystic lesion site is in the periodontal space of vital teeth.
OBSERVATION
A 21-year-old woman consulted for a swelling of the anterior maxillary region. The clinical examination revealed bucal swelling extending from the left central incisor to the first left premolar. The mucosa was normal. The adjacent teeth were vital. X-ray revealed a bilocular radiolucency extending between the roots of teeth 21 and 24. The lesion was enucleated, under local anaesthesia via a vestibular approach. Histology was typical of a BOC with cystic spaces lined by squamous epithelium with thickening and clear cells. Forty-eight months after surgery, there was sign of recurrence.
DISCUSSION
BOC is known to be a recurrent odontogenic cyst. Several cases of multiple recurrences have been reported up to nine years after the initial surgery. Long-term follow-up is thus mandatory.
