Description

A 33-year-old man, who had received an operation for paranasal sinusitis at the age 16, developed an asymptomatic mass in the right cheek. Our examination showed a cyst destroying the maxillary bone. The cyst was surgically removed and ultimately considered to be a postoperative maxillary cyst. The resulting defect in the maxillary bone was filled with iliac bone chips with satisfactory results. Though most cases of such cysts tend to occur under the supraorbital nerve and vessels, this case was found to overlie them. We reviewed previously reported cases and briefly discussed the cause, differential diagnosis, and treatment of this disorder.
