Marsupialization and Decompression in the Management of Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumors (KOTs) Marsupialization and decompression are well-established conservative surgical techniques used in the management of keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KOTs) and other large jaw cysts. These approaches are particularly valuable when lesions are extensive, closely associated with vital anatomical structures, or present a high risk of morbidity
