'''Keratocystic odontogenic tumour''', abbreviated '''KOT''', is an uncommon [[Odontogenic tumours and cysts|odontogenic tumour]].
 
It was previously known as ''odontogenic keratocyst'', abbreviated ''OKC''.<ref name=pmid18353202>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Madras | first1 = J. | last2 = Lapointe | first2 = H. | title = Keratocystic odontogenic tumour: reclassification of the odontogenic keratocyst from cyst to tumour. | journal = J Can Dent Assoc | volume = 74 | issue = 2 | pages = 165-165h | month = Mar | year = 2008 | doi =  | PMID = 18353202 }}</ref>

*May be associated with ''[[nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome]]''.

*Most common presentation: swelling.
 
==Gross==
*Location: usually mandible.
*May mimic [[ameloblastoma]] radiologically.

Features: <ref>Thompson LDR. Head and neck pathology - (Foundations in diagnostic pathology). Goldblum JR, Ed.. Churchill Livingstone. 2006. ISBN 0-443-06960-3.</ref>
*Stratified epithelium (resembling squamous epithelium) with:
**"Ribbon-like appearance" - '''important'''.
***Typically 8-10 cell layers thick - with relatively uniform thickness.
***Lacks rete ridges. 
**Palisaded basal cell layer.
*Parakeratosis (keratinized cells with nuclei) - '''key feature'''.
*Artefactual separation of epithelium from the basement membrane.

***Orthokeratosis = keratinized cells no nuclei; parakeratosis = keratinized cell with nuclei.
