Abstract
We report a rare case of a huge anterior maxillary cyst in combination with a dentigerous cyst extending into the maxillary sinus in a 46-year-old man. The patient was referred to our hospital from an otolaryngology department. X-ray and CT examinations revealed a large cyst in the anterior maxillary region and a radiopaque lesion in the left maxillary sinus. The cysts were removed surgically and causal tooth roots in the anterior maxillary region were resected under general anesthesia. The histopathological diagnosis was radicular cyst in the anterior maxillary region and dentigerous cyst in the maxillary sinus.
