Abstract

El quiste dentígero es una variedad quística de los maxilares que requiere de un diagnóstico temprano por la potencialidad que tiene de evolucionar hacia una patología tumoral y provocar deformidad facial. Se presenta el caso de un niño de 12 años de edad que acude a la consulta de cirugía máxilofacial por presentar un aumento de volumen en el paladar con características inflamatorias que involucraban otras zonas faciales. Después de realizar exámenes de laboratorio y radiográficos, se lleva al salón de operaciones para realizar la extracción de ambos caninos superiores retenidos en posición vertical por el paladar, enuclear el área radiolúcida visible en las radiografías y realizar examen histopatológico. El informe del departamento de Anatomía Patológica corrobora el diagnóstico presuntivo de quiste Dentígero en ambos caninos superiores. La evolución del paciente fue satisfactoria y desaparecieron los síntomas preoperatorios
