How Cyst Curettage + Peripheral Resection is performed
Under local or general anesthesia, an incision is made to turn the flap and expose the lesion channel. The cyst wall is dissected and removed as a whole, and the sample is sent for pathology. Then, a superficial resection of the bone around the cyst cavity is performed to remove residual epithelium and satellite cysts. Local auxiliary methods can be selected if necessary. After hemostasis and irrigation in the cavity, it is decided whether to perform bone grafting or filling material according to the defect, and finally the wound is sutured and closed. Postoperative monitoring of bleeding, infection and sensory changes is required. The goal is to remove the lesion and preserve function. The above is general health information and not medical advice; the specific situation is subject to specialist assessment and hospital plan.
