Mandibular OKC. Panoramic (a) and cross-sectional (b) cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images display an osteolytic odontogenic lesion in the posterior left mandible and ramus, with a growth predominantly along the length of the bone (double-headed arrow) and minimal expansion of the buccal and lingual cortices (curved arrows). Note mesial displacement of the impacted third molar (38) and inferior displacement of the mandibular canal (arrowheads and dots). Small and incomplete internal septum (small black arrows) due to the endosteal scalloping of the cortical plate are also shown. Wavy arrow, mandibular foramen
