Background and Objectives: Traumatic Bone Cyst (TBC) is an intraosseous cyst which is uncommon in jaws. Present report proceeds to a case of TBC developed in mandibular symphysis area.
Case presentation: The case was a 14-year-old girl who was seen with a unilocular radiolucent lesion with extention to interradicular zones in mandibular symphysis in her panoramic radiography. The patient didn't have any clinical symptoms or signs. The radiographic view and observing a blood-filled bone cavity during surgery made the diagnosis of TBC definite for us. The lesion healed after surgical intervention.
Conclusion: Confronting radiolucent lesions extending to interradicular zones in mandible especially in young people, TBC should be considered as a differential diagnosis.
