Central Giant Cell Granuloma of Mandible: A rare Case Report

A clinical case of a central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) that resembles a periapical lesion with endodontic etiology is presented in this article. The oral and maxillofacial surgery department was consulted for the diagnosis and treatment of a 39-year-old male patient who was otherwise in good health. The patient had an asymptomatic intraoral swelling that was gradually getting bigger and was connected to the left para-symphysis region of the mandible. A unilocular radiolucent lesion encompassing 33–34 teeth was discovered during radiographic examination. After a large cell lesion was discovered during an incisional biopsy, surgical curettage was performed. The results of the histopathological analysis supported the CGCG diagnosis. As such, it is critical that physicians correctly diagnose and rule out lesions that present similarly.

Abstract

A clinical case of a central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) that resembles a periapical lesion with endodontic etiology is presented in this article. The oral and maxillofacial surgery department was consulted for the diagnosis and treatment of a 39-year-old male patient who was otherwise in good health. The patient had an asymptomatic intraoral swelling that was gradually getting bigger and was connected to the left para-symphysis region of the mandible. A unilocular radiolucent lesion encompassing 33–34 teeth was discovered during radiographic examination. After a large cell lesion was discovered during an incisional biopsy, surgical curettage was performed. The results of the histopathological analysis supported the CGCG diagnosis. As such, it is critical that physicians correctly diagnose and rule out lesions that present similarly.
