The term surgical ciliated cyst of the maxilla is a designation for cysts of the maxillary sinus conventionally associated with surgery and trauma. Surgical ciliated cysts with a noncontributory history of surgery or trauma can pose a diagnostic challenge. We report an interesting case of ciliated cyst of the maxilla in a 54-year-old male patient. The present case provides a plausible explanation for the occurrence of ciliated cyst of the maxilla lacking history of surgery or trauma.
