Post-orthognathic surgical ciliated cyst of the anterior maxilla: a case report and narrative review.
Review in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundPost-orthognathic surgical ciliated cyst (POSCC) is a benign, acquired cystic lesion associated with a history of orthognathic surgery, maxillofacial trauma, and similar events. This study presents a case of a maxillary POSCC that developed five years after a Le Fort I advancement osteotomy. CASE PRESENTATION: A 25-year-old male patient developed a painless, gradually fluctuant swelling in the anterior maxillary area following previous surgical treatment. Radiographic investigations revealed a unilocular radiolucent lesion from the left to right premolars, encompassing the apices of the teeth with a scalloped border. With clinicopathological correlation and consideration of the patient's history, the diagnosis of surgical ciliated cyst was confirmed. Decompression followed by lesion excision was performed for the patient. A one year follow-up showed no recurrence or complications.
conclusionAlthough POSCC is a rare complication following surgery involving the maxillary bone and sinus, it can lead to large lesions with extensive growth. Long-term radiographic follow up is highly recommended after Le Fort osteotomy.
