Abstract

 Central giant cell granuloma is an uncommon benign intraosseus lesion of jaws. It is benign proliferative lesion having incidence of approximately 7% of all benign tumors of the jaws. It affects females more often than males, in a 2:1 ratio and is seen most frequently under the age of 30 years. It may present as asymptomatic nonaggressive lesion or as aggressive lesion leading to pain, expansion and perforation of the cortex, root resorption and reoccurrence. Here we are reporting a case of aggressive central giant cell lesion involving anterior part of mandible crossing mid line.

Keywords: Aggressive; Multilocular Radiolucency; Reparative; Jaws.
