Abstract

Keratocystoma emerges as an exceptionally discerned, benign neoplasm of salivary glands. Initially scripted by Seifert and Nagao, tumour is preponderantly composed of multicystic spaces layered by squamous epithelial cells commingled with focal areas of solid epithelial cell nests. Neoplasm is extremely exceptional within paediatric population or adults. Commonly implicating the parotid gland, neoplasm may be engendered from salivary ducts subjected to squamous metaplasia [1,2].
