WITH ENUCLEATION & PERIPHERAL OSTECTOMY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF
KERATOCYSTIC ODONTOGENIC TUMOUR (KCOT) & ORTHOKERATINISED
ODONTOGENIC CYST (OOC).

INTRODUCTION:
Odontogenic Keratocyst (OKC) term was introduced by Philipsen in 1956. It is a benign
developmental cystic lesion and almost certainly represents the lesion that used to be known
as a primordial cyst. Odontogenic keratocyst traditional is said to have two histological sub
types: Parakeratinised & Orthokeratinised. The present nomenclature describes the
Parakeratinised Odontogenic Keratocyst as a benign cystic tumour named Keratocystic
Odontogenic Tumour (KCOT) & the Orthokeratinised Odontogenic Keratocyst is considered as
benign cystic lesion & is named Orthokeratinised Odontogenic Cyst (OOC). The term OKC is
still used synonymously with KCOT or OOC. The lesion is thought to be originating from the
remnants of the dental lamina or proliferation of basal mucosal cells in the retromolar area &
has a high predilection for involving the posterior body & ascending ramus of the mandible.
Majority of the cases occur in the 2
nd
to 4
th
decade with a slight male predilection.
It has a typical histologic appearance consisting of an epithelial lining of five to six cells
thick and polarization of the basal layer on the basement membrane. KCOT has a
parakeratinised epithelial lining whereas OOC has an orthokeratinised lining. Multiple KCOT is
a hallmark feature of Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome & multiple KCOT is thought to
represent an incomplete penetrance of the syndrome with higher chances of recurrence.
Parakeratinised Odontogenic Keratocyst has been quoted as having a recurrence rate
varying from 25% to 60% following conservative management such as simple enucleation.
The recurrence following conservative enucleation & aggressive clinical behavior has led to its
classification as an aggressive benign neoplasm KCOT separating it from the not so
aggressive cystic lesion OCC. Many theories have been proposed for the recurrence of these
lesions which include the following but are not limited to:-
1) Increased aggressiveness & mitotic rate of cystic epithelial lining,
2) Highly friable nature of the lining making it difficult to remove the lesion in Toto,
3) Presence of epithelial budding & daughter cysts in the periphery of the lesion,
4) Development of a new unrelated lesion.
Due to this exceedingly high recurrence rate following conservative plain enucleation,
alternative treatments have been actively pursued to decrease the recurrence rate but, at the
same time, to not subject the patient to radical surgery with loss of teeth, bone, nerves and
other vital structures.
These treatment modalities include:
1) Decompression or Marsupalization
2) Cystectomy with peripheral ostectomy
a) En bloc resection without continuity defect
b) Enucleation with 1mm peripheral bone removal
3) Enucleation with physiochemical methods
a) Liquid Nitrogen
b) Carnoys solution
4) Combination of the above
Carnoys solution is a chemical tissue fixative that was popularized by Stoelinga in the
year 1973 for the conservative management of OKC. It penetrates bone to a predictable, time-
dependent depth. A 5-minute application will penetrate bone to a depth of 1.54 mm, nerve to a
depth of 0.15 mm and mucosa to a depth of 0.51 mm. Application of the Carnoys solution can
be either prior to enucleation or afterwards. However, the treatment of the bony cavity after
enucleation allows for easier removal of the cyst lining and better identification of cystic tissue
remnants. The surrounding vital tissues such as nerves, mucosa are isolated from the solution
by paraffin/ vaseline lubricated gauzes & Carnoys solution is applied by cotton tipped swab
stick besides a ribbon gauge soaked in Carnoys solution can be placed in the cavity for a
period of 5 minutes after which the cavity is thoroughly irrigated with saline. The composition of
Carnoys Solution for 10 ml is:
Carnoys solution (Cutler and Zollinger, 1933).
Absolute alcohol 6 ml
Chloroform 3 ml
Glacial acetic acid 1 ml
Ferric chloride 1 g






AIM:
The aim of the study is to determine the efficacy of Carnoys Solution along with
Enucleation & Peripheral Ostectomy in the treatment of Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumour &
Orthokeratinised Odontogenic Cyst.

OBJECTIVES:

1. Evaluate any specific clinical, histological or radiographic finding associated with the
recurrence with the treatment modality over a minimum follow up period of 1 year.

2. Evaluate effect of Carnoys solution on soft & hard tissue healing.

3. Incidence of Infection.

4. Evaluate Pain & swelling.

5. To monitor the effect of Carnoys solution on the development of neurosensory deficit &
its recovery.




PATIENTS & METHOD:

Source of data:-
The patients will be selected from the OPD of the dept. of OMFS, NHDC, Mumbai, whose
informed consent will be taken prior to the procedure. A minimum number of 25 cystic lesions
will be selected.





Inclusion criteria:
1. Any patient with a cystic lesion involving the jaw bones in which histopathology &
radiography are suggestive of KCOT/OOC preoperatively & which is later confirmed by
excisional biopsy as KCOT/OOC.
2. Should have at least minimum 8mm of vital bone at the inferior border of the mandible.
3. Recurrent lesion: A new lesion developing in the same anatomical region as previous
lesion which is confirmed as KCOT/OOC.
4. Patients with Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome will be included.




Exclusion criteria:
1. Patients who do not present themselves for follow up.
2. Patients who refuse to give consent for being included in the study.
3. Incisional biopsy report suggests that the lesion is not a KCOT/OOC.
4. Patient known to be allergic to any constituent of Carnoys Solution.
5. Large Perforation of inferior border of the mandible.
6. Lesion extending into the orbital floor & the pterygopataline fossa.















PROCEDURE:
Patient will be selected from OPD of NHDC, Mumbai. Detailed case history will be taken. Pre-
operative medical & radiographic investigations will be done & informed consent will be taken.
Cystic lesion aspiration & incisional biopsy will be done under local anesthesia. Screening for
syndrome in patients with multiple cysts will be conducted. Teeth that are found involved in the
lesion will be pre-operatively endodontically treated. Pre-operative Oral prophylaxis &
Restorative treatment whenever possible will be completed. Baseline parameters like
neurosensory deficit, facial measurements etc. will be recorded in the case record form.
Patients will be taken under general anesthesia via nasal or oro-endotracheal intubation &
scrubbed & draped according to standard aseptic technique. Local anesthesia with adrenaline
will be infiltrated into the vestibular area & a sulcular or vestibular incision will be taken & the
mucoperiosteal flap will be reflected. If the cyst has perforated the cortex then the cyst will be
removed with the overlying mucosa. An opening will be made in the overlying cortex with a drill
or rongeur approximately 1/3 to 1/2 the diameter of the cyst. Care will be taken not to perforate
the cystic lining.
Periosteal elevator or sinus curettes will be used to separate the cystic lining from the bone.
The lining may be friable & at times will need to be removed piecemeal. The cyst will be
enucleated and the bony cavity will be evaluated for any remnants of the cyst. Any bony
scalloping or septa will be removed with round vulcanite bur. Peripheral Ostectomy
(mechanical curettage) will be carried out with round bur to remove any epithelial remnants in
the bone. Surrounding soft tissue will be protected with moist paraffin / Vaseline lubricated
gauze & vital structures may be electively protected with petrolatum jelly for example sinus
lining may be protected by impression compound & inferior alveolar neurovascular bundle
protected by sterile polyethylene sheet cut out. Freshly prepared Carnoys solution will be
applied to the area with cotton tipped swab stick & ribbon gauze soaked in Carnoys solution
will be allowed to remain in contact for a period of 5 minutes. This would turn the bone brown &
fix any epithelial lining remnants which can then be easily removed. The cavity will then be
thoroughly irrigated with saline solution. Hemostasis will be achieved & in case if it is felt that
the bony defect is weathered the native bone then the native bone will be bridged bone plate/
reconstruction plate or intermaxillary ligation will be done for 4-6 weeks. Primary closure will be
done. A drain or pressure dressing may be placed. Post-operative antibiotic & analgesics will
be prescribed. Post-operative neurosensory recording, pain, swelling & soft tissue healing will
be assessed.
Patient will be followed up for at least 1 year & appropriate radiographic examination will be
done to evaluate for recurrence of cystic lesions (lesion in the same anatomical region as the
surgery).

Clinical Parameters:

1. Recurrence will be evaluated on appropriate radiographs at interval of 6 months.
2. Pain will be evaluated by Visual Analog Scale on 1
st
day, 7
th
day, 14 day after surgery. Use of
analgesics will be recorded.
3. Facial swelling will be evaluated by measuring distance between 7 predetermined points on 2
nd
,
7
th
day & 14
th
day.
4. Soft tissue healing will be evaluated by Landrys Healing Index & presence/absence of wound
dehiscence & necrosis will be recorded on 7
th
& 14
th
day.
5. Hard tissue healing will be determined by using CBCT at immediate post-operative & at 1 year
to determine bone fill by comparing relative density with reference point
6. Incidence of pathological fracture will be recorded
7. Standard Neurological test will be done according to specifications of Gheta et al to evaluate
neural function on 7
th
day, 14
th
day, 6 months, 1year.
8. Any other complications related to the surgery/lesion will be recorded.

The research project entitled EVALUATION OF THE EFFICACY OF CARNOYS SOLUTION
AS AN ADJUNCT WITH ENUCLEATION & PERIPHERAL OSTECTOMY IN THE
MANAGEMENT OF KERATOCYSTIC ODONTOGENIC TUMOUR (KCOT) &
ORTHOKERATINISED ODONTOGENIC CYST (OOC). is being conducted as a dissertation
project by Dr. Kapoor Prathmesh Raji v for his MDS Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
dissertation for MUHS, Nashik in the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Nair Hospital
Dental College, Mumbai.
This study intends to determine the efficacy of Carnoys Solution along with Enucleation &
Peripheral Ostectomy (Mechanical Curettage) in treatment of Odontogenic Keratocyst.

The risk involved in this procedure is similar to any of the regular surgical procedures.

In this study, you will be participating as patient. After obtaining your consent for participation,
you will be required to undergo the required preoperative and postoperative assessments.
The procedure involves removing the lesion from your jaw/jaws followed by application of an
agent (Carnoys Solution) that eliminate any residual pathological tissue. The patient (you) will
be kept on a regular follow-up during which you closely monitored with appropriate
radiographs.

Hereby, your nature of the participation into this study is totally voluntary and you can withdraw
at any time without giving any reason which will not make any difference to your standard care.
Any discomfort should be reported to the doctor offering the therapy where you will be given
appropriate treatment.
The project has been reviewed by the local Ethics Committee of NHDC.
