Abstract
A case of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) arising in a mandibular residu al cyst in a 62-year-old man is presented. The treatment included enuc leation followed by primary closure. Histologic examination revealed a poorly differentiated SCC in the cyst lining without invasion through the connective tissue wall. Eight and a half years later. the patient was still free from recurrence.
