Abstract

Radicular cysts are the most common odontogenic cystic lesions of inflammatory origin and are managed either by surgical enucleation or by marsupialization. We illustrate the possibility of complete healing of cystic periapical lesions in permanent and mixed dentition with conservation of vital structures. This article aims to report two clinical cases of radicular cysts of huge proportion treated with two different techniques in an effort to shed some light on the advantages and disadvantages as well as a brief discussion of the leading criterias that should be taken into consideration when assessing the treatment modalities. Resume Les kystes radiculaires sont consideres comme les lesions odontogeniques d’origine inflammatoire les plus communes, et sont traites par enucleation chirugicale ou par marsupialisation.On illustre la possibilite d’obtenir une cicatrisation complete des kystes periapicaux au niveau de la dentition permanente et mixte avec conservation des structures anatomiques. L›objectif de cet article est de presenter deux cas cliniques de kystes radiculaires de large proportion traites par deux differentes techniques afin d’orienter le praticien dans le choix de la technique la mieux adaptee. Les avantages et les inconvenients de chacune des techniques sont abordes et discutes. Nous avons tente de faire le point sur les criteres actuels pris en consideration lors de la decision des modalities therapeutiques.
