Abstract

Here, we report a case of keratocystic odontogenic tumor occurring bilaterally in a male patient in fourth decade of life. This case is different from bilateral lesions of keratocystic odontogenic tumor which are most commonly parakeratinized and are associated with syndromes like nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome. In our case, we could not find out any syndromic association and furthermore histopathology was in line of orthokeratinization.
