Abstract
Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) are aggressive lesions that have been variously classified as neoplasms or cysts according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). They can be challenging to surgically remove and the cysts can exhibit locally aggressive behaviour if incompletely excised. We describe a case of recurrent OKC invading the orbit requiring multidisciplinary approach for extended surgical excision, and review the current literature regarding this condition.
