Unveiling the mandibular mystery: a case of central giant cell granuloma in posterior mandibular region—a case report
In contrast to the usual demographic and anatomical trends, this case illustrates a rare presentation of central giant cell granuloma in the posterior mandible of a middle-aged female. The significance of taking central giant cell granuloma into account when making a differential diagnosis for jaw swellings other than anterior region and in older age groups is highlighted by this atypical placement. By describing an uncommon site of involvement, the case contributes significantly to the limited literature on this atypical presentation. It also emphasizes the necessity of thorough clinical, radiographic, and histological correlation for precise diagnosis and treatment.
