Median palatal cysts are uncommon hard palate fissural cysts that are not odontogenic. These lesions are located behind the incisive canal in the midline of the hard palate. The majority of the time, median palatine cysts are asymptomatic and are discovered by coincidence while a patient is being evaluated for a different ailment.[1]
Its genesis is commonly ascribed to the enclavement of epithelial remnants between the two lateral maxillary processes that fuse to form the hard palate, within the palatine suture.[2]
The median palatal cyst accounts for only 7.14% of all jaw cysts, making it a rare nonodontogenic lesion.[3]
