Abstract

A pediatric patient presented with facial swelling. CT scans showed a left infratemporal mass with erosion of coronoid process and normal dentition. CT guided FNAB suggested the possibility of odontogenic keratocyst. The mass was excised by a transzygomatic approach. A four year followup has not shown any recurrence. The possibility of odontogenic keratocyst needs to be considered while evaluating infratemporal fossa swellings.
