74-year-old male
A 74-year-old male was referred for implant placement in the area of the right maxillary first molar. The radiologist identified a surgical ciliated cyst in the area of a previous sinus lift. This type of cyst can develop when instruments scrape respiratory epithelium during surgery and that tissue contacts another area of the jaw. The radiologist noted this finding has significant implications, as the cyst requires management before implant placement can proceed.
