Abstract
Mandibular fractures are some of the most frequently occurring injuries in the maxillofacial region although pathological fractures state only 2% of them. Bone cysts are common lesions of mandible and maxilla. Their long asymptomatic development causes extensive deformation and bone damage. A case report presents fracture of mandible affected with massive odontogenic cyst. Presentation, diagnosis and management of fracture and intraosseus pathology is discussed.
