central giant cell granuloma (cgcg), formerly called giant cell reparative granuloma, is a non-neoplastic proliferative lesion of unknown etiology. it occurs most commonly in the mandible. the case reported here resembled a wide variety of conditions that led to a misdiagnosis both on clinical and radiographic examinations but was histopathologically diagnosed as cgcg. we describe a case of cgc...

Giant cell reparative granuloma accounts for 1%-7% of all benign lesions of the jaw. Giant cell reparative granuloma often arises in the mandible and in the maxilla and affects children and young adults. It is usually a slow-growing lesion, fast-growing lesions having rarely been reported. The latter, despite the innocent histological appearance, has an aggressive behaviour mimicking a malignan...

We present a case of a giant cell reparative granuloma of the frontoethmoidal region that had a large intracranial extraaxial component and was studied with MR. Although rare, giant cell reparative granuloma can be suggested in the correct clinical setting and when MR features suggest a fibrous lesion.

Giant Cell Reparative Granuloma (GCRG) of phalanx is uncommon. It is a benign osteolytic lesion but can be locally aggressive. GCRG has certain radiology and histological features that are similar to other giant cell lesions of the bone. We present a case report of a young patient with giant cell reparative granuloma of proximal phalanx of left third toe. The bone lesion was successfully treate...

PURPOSE To report a case of cherubism with extensive, bilateral orbital involvement occurring in a 27-year-old woman who had the diagnosis established at the age of 4 years. DESIGN Single interventional case report. INTERVENTION Ophthalmologic examination and computed tomography were performed. The patient underwent multiple surgical excisions using a bicoronal and transorbital approach. Th...

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...
