Transoral Marsupialization of an Isolated Surgical Ciliated Cyst of the Infratemporal Fossa

Surgical ciliated cysts occur primarily in the maxilla after radical maxillary sinus surgery. We report the first case of a surgical ciliated cyst that developed in the infratemporal fossa 25 years after the patient sustained severe facial trauma. The patient complained of mandibular pain and limite...

Sumario:Surgical ciliated cysts occur primarily in the maxilla after radical maxillary sinus surgery. We report the first case of a surgical ciliated cyst that developed in the infratemporal fossa 25 years after the patient sustained severe facial trauma. The patient complained of mandibular pain and limited mouth opening. The patient’s condition was completely resolved 5 months after marsupialization via Le Fort I osteotomy. Surgical morbidities can be minimized by proper diagnosis and less invasive surgery.
