Why do these remnants proliferate? The origin of epithelial odontogenic neoplasms, hamartomas and cysts is inextricably bound up with a discussion of the parent cells of these lesions. Epithelial Remnants may develop into Cysts, Tumors, and Hamartomas.TRANSCRIPT
Epithelial Remnants Derivatives
Definition
• The epithelial remnants are the rests of an epitheliathat served once as a meaningful tissue in embryoniclife or during the tooth formation.
• While this epithelial cells are supposed to disintegrate due to ectomesenchymal invasion and/or programmed cell death, others persist !!
• These Remnants may develop into Cysts, Tumors, and Hamartomas.

Why do these remnants proliferate?
It is widely held that the majority of epithelial residues persist throughout life as vital, by large inactive (resting) single cells or cell clusters. Some of the cell rests seem to be triggered to proliferation by hitherto unknown mechanisms (apart from instances of possible inflammatory stimuli), resulting in production later in life of well-recognized pathological entities.
The origin of epithelial odontogenic neoplasms, hamartomas and cysts is inextricably bound up with a discussion of the parent cells of these lesions.

Derivatives of other epithelial remnants in H&N
In recent years, the existence of this group of lesions as separate entities has been questioned and they were excluded from the 1992 WHO Classification of epithelial jaw cysts (Kramer et al., 1992).
Previously, it had been thought that these cysts developed from epithelium entrapped in the process of fusion of embryonic processes.
It is now believed that they represent :- posterior extension of an incisive canal cyst in the case of median palatine cyst; - anterior extension in the case of median alveolar cyst; - and a range of other odontogenic cysts, frequently an odontogenic keratocyst, in
the case of the globulomaxillary cysts.- Moreover, the so-called median alveolar cyst may also, in a number of instances,
be a keratocyst derived from dental lamina in the midline of the maxilla.
