The salivary glands, major and minor, comprise a complex anatomic and physiologic organ system producing enzyme, lubrication, mixing agent and immune factors. The salivary glands respond to physical (food and drink) and emotional (flight, exhilaration and exhaustion) stimuli. They may fall prey to a host of pathologic conditions, including infection, calculus, immune disorders, hypertrophy and atrophy, systemic diseases and neoplasms, both benign and malignant.
Cystic lesions are very common in jawbones and it includes those of both odontogenic and non-odontogenic origin. By the time of diagnosis, most of the cyst will be enlarged considerably weakening the bones. This leads to various sequelae such as fractures. Other complications eventhough rare such as malignant transformation of cystic lining is of considerable importance.
