Abstract:
The oral cavity surprises us with a humongous variety of lesions. Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) is one such rare presentation. The etiology of CGCG is controversial, which ranges from initially being considered a reparative lesion to currently being hypothesized as a mesenchymal proliferative jaw lesion. Clinically, CGCG is not a typical presenting lesion. It may be asymptomatic or even manifest as a slow-growing swelling. This entity most commonly occurs in younger females, particularly situated in the mandible. Here is a case report of a 31-year-old female with CGCG.
