ABSTRACT
Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) is an uncommon, benign, intraosseous bony lesion of the mandible and maxilla which is variably aggressive in nature. The incidence of an aggressive and recurrence nature is greatest in a female with a ratio of 2:1. Based on the clinical and radiographic features, Central giant cell granuloma can be classified as aggressive and non-aggressive lesions. Here we report a case of central giant cell granuloma in the posterior mandibular molar region which was aggressive in nature. The clinically and radiographically swelling was evaluated with displaced tooth, pain, cortical expansion, and root resorption. The treatment varies according to the nature of the lesion, this case was treated by conservative excision with continuity of the mandible.
Key words: Aggressive, central giant cell granuloma, osteolytic lesion.
