No reccurrence was seen during the past three years. The second case, 77 years old male, had complain of painless swellung in the right side of hard palate. The tumor was extirpated by trans maxillary approach.
The histological origin and clinical findings of the cyst in the maxillary region were discussed briefly from the base of a review of the literature.
