central giant cell granuloma: a potential endodontic misdiagnosis

چکیده
central giant cell granulomas (cgcgs) may manifest as radiolucencies anywhere in the mandible or maxilla. in rare cases, it can appear as a localized periradicular area and mimic an endodontic lesion. this case report presents an uncommon location of cgcg which was not accurately diagnosed nor timely treated. periodic follow ups of periapical radiolucencies after rct are necessary. dentists should include cgcg in differential diagnosis of lesions that are refractory to endodontic treatment.

متن کاملMultifocal Central Giant Cell Granuloma - A Case Report
Central giant cell granuloma is a benign, aggressive neoplasm composed of multinucleated giant cells that almost exclusively occurs in the jaws though extra-gnathic incidence is rare.Multifocal CGCGs of the jaws are very rare and suggestive of systemic diseases such as hyperparathyroidism,an inherited syndrome such as Noonan-like multiple giant cell lesion syndrome or other disorders.Very few c...
متن کاملCentral giant cell granuloma. A case report.
Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) is a relatively uncommon benign bony lesion of a variably aggressive nature. Thought to represent a reparative response to intrabony haemorrhage and inflammation, CGCG was once regarded as a reactive lesion. It is actually an asymptomatic lesion which becomes evident during routine radiographic examination or as a result of painless but visible expansion of t...
متن کاملMultiple Central Giant Cell Granuloma of the Mandible: A Case Report
Introduction: Central giant cell granuloma is a benign lesion but sometimes has aggressive proliferation composed of multinucleated giant cells in a background of spindle and ovoid mesenchymal cells. Multifocal central giant cell granuloma of jaws is very rare and usually associated with hyperparathyroidism and some syndromes. We described an un-usual case of a 22-year-old man with idi-opathic ...
متن کاملAggressive central giant cell granuloma mimicking giant cell tumor
Introduction: Giant cell granulomas (GCGs) of the jaws are lesions that arise either peripherally in periodontal ligament, mucoperiosteum, or centrally in the bone. Histologically, both peripheral and central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) are characterized by the presence of numerous multinucleated giant cells (MGCs) in a prominent fibrous stroma. CGCG are further categorized into aggressive and ...
متن کاملA Comparative Immunohistochemical Study of CD105 Expression in Peripheral and Central Giant Cell Granuloma
Introduction: Despite similar histopathological features, peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) and central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) differ in their biological behavior. PGCG and CGCG are hemorrhagic/vascular lesions, clinically and microscopically. Angiogenesis is necessary for the growth and development of lesions and affects their clinical behavior. CD105 is a useful vascular marker for...
