C
entral giant cell granuloma (CGCG) is a benign lesion; CGCG
occurs mainly in children and young adults with more than
60%of all cases occurring before the age of 30 years and female
to male ratio of 2:1. The mandibular/maxillary ratio is from 2:1
to 3:1. Surgery is the traditional treatment of CGCG. Calcitonin
and intralesional steroid were used with good results. In this
case report, a 14 years old Saudi girl presented with a hard
swelling of left side of the mandible with few months duration.
Investigations including blood tests, radiographs and biopsy
were done which confirmed the diagnosed of CGCG. Lesion
has been treated using six weekly intralesional injections of
steroid which gave very good result. Patient has been followed
up for one year with radiographic evidence of defect refill with
bone and no sign of recurrence.
