MECHANISM OF CYST DEVELOPMENT
• The common feature of all cysts is the stimulation of residual developmental epithelial cells, leading to proliferation but not invasion of adjacent tissues.
• The epithelial rests proliferate into a solid mass of epithelial cells. As the mass enlarges, the epithelial cells in the center become positioned further from the blood supply at the periphery of the mass.
• At some point, the cells at the center become too far removed from the nearest blood vessel
to survive by nutritional diffusion. They die, creating a lumen. Their intracellular products make the lumen hypertonic, which transudates fluid into the lumen. This in turn creates a hydrostatic pressure, producing bone resorption, clinical expansion, and sometimes mild paresthesia or pain.
• As additional epithelial cells die off and are sloughed into the lumen, their contents perpetuate the hypertonic state and the hydrostatic pressure.
• The cell membranes and nuclear membranes of these sloughed cells are high in cholesterol, hence the common finding of cholesterol clefts in the lumen or even in the walls of many cysts.
• As the cyst enlarges, it compresses surrounding connective tissue into a connective tissue wall.
• The epithelial lining matures and develops a basement membrane.
• The cyst lining continues to proliferate, thus causing the cyst to enlarge until it is removed (enucleation); the proliferating cells are communicated into the oral cavity or an external surface so as to break the proliferation-hydrostatic pressure cycle (marsupialization), or the inciting cytokines are removed (via tooth removal or root canal therapy in radicular
2. Hydrostatic enlargement 3. Bone resorbing factors
1. Mural growth
• Growth occurring in the wall of cyst
• Occurs by peripheral cell division/
accumulation of cellular contents
Peripheral cell division
Stimulus acts as an irritant to lining epithelium active cell division peripheral growth of cyst
Proliferating epithelium inductive influence on underlying CT proliferation & expansion of CT
Mitotic values of epithelial lining reflect cyst growth
Higher mitotic value = greater growth potential of cyst & vice versa
o Highest for OKC – 8 o Least for DC – 0.6 o Radicular cyst – 4.6 o Nasopalatine cyst – 2.3 o Inflammatory collateral cyst – 2 o Residual cyst – 1
Mitotic activity not equated to the number of mitotic figs
Hence other factors play a major role rather than the mitotic activity alone
Accumulation of cellular contents
Accumulation of mural keratin squames in lumen enlargement
Cyst volume increases by proliferation of cyst lining at active cellular sites & shedding of cells into lumen
Local areas of increased cell division
finger like epithelial projections in turn CT proliferation expansion of cyst
Growth of cyst due to this factor occurs mainly along medullary bone with little cortical expansion
2. Hydrostatic enlargement
• Distension of cyst wall by fluid that accumulates by one / more processes
• Distension depends on
Vascular pressure
Collagen fibers
• Average intra luminal pressure
Radicular cyst – 70 cm of water
Transudation & exudation
Dialysis
1. Secretion
Very few secretory products
Active secretion by secretory cells in epithelium is very less
40% of DC – Goblet cells – mucous
High molecular weight GAGs o Products of normal
metabolic turnover /
ORAL PATHOLOGY Cysts of Oral Region
3
inflammatory degradative products of CT
o Enter lumen via altered permeability of lining epithelia
2% DC – epithelial lining cells keratinizing metaplasia contributes to keratin accumulation in cyst lumen
Plasma cells
o Secrete immunoglobulins o Reach the cyst lumen via
epithelial lining
2. Transudation & exudation
Cysts grow by accumulation of inflammatory transudates &
exudates – proven by examining the protein content & specific gravity
Total soluble Protein levels o Radicular cyst: 6.3 – 7.5
gms100 ml (rich in gamma globulins)
― High mol wt substances enter via altered vascular permeability - suggest that they are
other high mol wt substances – fibrin & cholesterol also found in cyst fluid – products of haemorrhage o Growth of both Dentigerous
cyst & Radicular cyst - Unicentric due to hydrostatic forces
3. Dialysis
Refers to accumulation of fluid in the cyst lumen due to difference in the osmolarity of the cyst fluid and serum with cyst fluid having a higher osmolarity
