Abstract
Background: Odontogenic cysts and tumors (OCTs) are an important group of oral pathologies. There are no epidemiological data of the frequency of these lesions among Nicaraguans. Purpose: To establish the relative frequency of OCTs in Nicaraguan population. Methods: This was a retrospective study in which excisional biopsy records of regional hospital pathology departments from the cities of León, Managua, Estelí, Matagalpa, and Jinotega, obtained between 2010 and 2016, were analyzed. The pathologies were classified using the World Health Organization 2017 guidelines. Data analysis was descriptive through relative frequencies. Results: There were 109 OCT cases (0.8 %) out of 13,102 reports reviewed. Distribution by sex was 50.9 % men and 49.9 % women, mainly in the 11-to-30-year age range. The most frequent cyst was dentigerous cyst (69.5 %) and the most common odontogenic tumor was ameloblastoma (50 %), predominantly in the jaw. Conclusion: This study provides epidemiological information on OCTs from five Nicaraguan cities. These data are important to identify groups at risk and possible associated factors, and to implement differential diagnostic and adequate treatment systems.
