Non-Syndromic Recurrent Multiple Odontogenic Keratocysts: A Case Report

Abstract

carcinoma syndrome (NBS). It is linked with mutation in the PTCH gene. Partial expression
of the gene may result in occurrence of only multiple recurring OKC. Our patient presented
with nine cysts with multiple recurrences over a period of 11 years without any
other manifestation of the syndrome.
