What surgical treatment has the lowest recurrence rate following the management of keratocystic odontogenic tumor?: A large systematic review and meta-analysis
文摘
This study is a largest meta-analysis, it includes 2287 non-syndromic KOTs enrolled in 35 studies. The recurrence rate (RR) for various treatment techniques was enucleation alone (23.1%), enucleation and curettage (17.4%), enucleation and Carnoy's solution (11.5%), enucleation plus liquid nitrogen cryotherapy (14.5%), marsupialization alone (32.3%), decompression followed by residual cystectomy (14.6%) and resection (8.4%). The overall RR of KOTs for all different treatments was 16.6%. To get the least chance of recurrence, enucleation with Carnoy's solution should be the first-line treatment for primary KOTs. Also, marsupialization should be followed by secondary enucleation. Finally, resections should be reserved for multiple recurrences and syndromic lesions.
