Traumatic bone cyst in the maxilla. 1978

R A Winer, and H C Doku

This report presents an unusual asymptomatic periapical radiolucency occurring around the upper right lateral incisor. Surgical intervention revealed an empty bone cavity which was diagnosed as a traumatic bone cyst. Follow-up periapical radiographs of the patient were taken over a 6-year period until complete healing of the lesion took place.
