Inflammatory collateral cysts show a slight preponderance for males, but this is most apparent for paradental cysts (Table 4.2), where about 70% of cases overall affected males. Mandibular buccal bifurcation cysts affecting children show a more even distribution between males and females (Table 4.3), with only one series reporting a male preponderance (70%: Thurnwald et al. 1994 ). Philipsen et al. (2004 ) found 87 cases where sex had been recorded, with a slight male preponderance of 55%. In their analysis of odontogenic cysts, Jones et al. (2006 ) found 14 cases in children where sex was recorded and showed a male : female ratio of 1.33 (57% males).
