Background: In the literature, odontogenic keratocysts are very well recorded. OKCs may occur either as solitary (non-syndromic OKCs) or as multiple OKCs (syndromic OKCs) in two different types. Multiple OKCs usually occur as one of the features in Gorlin–Goltz syndrome. Multiple OKCs, though extremely rare, have been known to occur in non-syndromic situations. We report a rare case of numerous OKCs without associated with any syndromes. We address the probability of the present case being a partial expression of NBCCS and examine briefly the latest trends in the treatment of recurrent OKCs associated with this syndrome.
Keywords: Odontogenic Keratocyst, NBCC Syndrome, Enucleation.
