Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the proliferation of three subtypes of odontogenic keratocysts(OKC), namely simple(not recurrent),recurrent and basal cell naevus syndrome(BCNS) associated lesions. Methods: Ki 67 expression was studied in 34 odontogenic keratocysts(simple, n =10;recurrent, n =12;syndrome, n =12)by biotin streptavidin method using Ki 67 monoclonal antibody after microwave treatment. Ki 67 positive cells were counted manually and related to the area of epithelial lining as determined by computer image analyzer. Results: Ki 67 positive cells per mm 2 in simple odontogenic keratocysts ①, recurrent odontogenic keratocysts ② and BCNS ③ were 1 812.29?606.47, 2 393.88 ?997.08 and 3 983.17?858.92 respectively(① or ② vs ③ P 0.05). Conclusion: The basal cell naevus syndrome associated OKC has a higher rate of epithelial proliferation than non syndrome OKC, the increased epithelial proliferation is correlated with increased recurrence potential. Ki 67 may be an alternative method to differentiate syndrome and non syndrome OKC.
