The cyst with highest recurrence rate is:_____________?

Correct answer: A. Keratocyst

  • A. Keratocyst
  • B. Periapical cyst
  • C. Nasoalveolar cyst
  • D. Globulamaxilary cyst

Explanation

Among these choices, the odontogenic keratocyst has the highest recurrence rate because its thin lining is easily left behind and satellite cysts may be present. Periapical, nasoalveolar, and globulomaxillary cysts generally recur less often after adequate treatment.
