Resumen
Introduction: Lateral Periodontal Cyst (CPL), also called botrioid odontogenic cyst, is considered an uncommon odontogenic cyst of development, with a higher occurrence between the fifth and seventh decade, predominantly among males. This lesion is generally asymptomatic and radiologically presents as a radiolucent image with well-defined round or oval borders. Case report: In this article, we refer to a clinical case, supported by literature review, of a localized lesion between the lateral incisor and the right lower canine in a male patient of 37 years. A panoramic and periapical radiograph was performed, because the clinical exam presented a whitish lesion at the level of the buccal vestibule in the right anteroinferior area, approximately 8 mm in diameter, soft to palpation of the sessile base. Radiographically, a radiolucent image located laterally between 42 and 43 was detected. The lesion was surgically removed in its entirety without the subsequent application of bone regenerating material; an excisional biopsy of the lesion was performed and the presumptive diagnosis was corroborated. Conclusion: the elimination of the lesion in a single surgical time was a satisfactory treatment for this type of pathologies.
