A member asked:
Does having a maxilliary retention cyst on the left side of neck for months mean i have cancer?and reactive adenopathy ct scan results.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maxillary and Neck: Maxillary area is on the face and not Neck. Most commonly if the Maxillary Retention cyst gets infected, it will cause painful lymph nodes in the neck. It is not that common for Maxillary Retention Cyst to become malignant cancer.
