Abstract:
We report a case of giant-cell granuloma located in the maxilla of a 9-year-old child. The pathogenesis of giant-cell reparative granuloma (GCRG) remains obscure. Radiological features are variable. Radiolucency or well or ill-defined uni-or multilocular aspects with trabeculations can be observed. Symptoms of compression on the adjacent tooth's root and pathology findings confirm the diagnosis. Curettage is effective and recurrence is rare.
