Huge Peripheral Giant Cell Granuloma Leading to Bone Resorption: A Report of Two Cases

Year 2011, Volume: 14 Issue: 3, 219 - 224, 06.01.2011

Abstract

ABSTRACT

Although peripheral giant cell granulomas (PGCG) develop mainly within soft tissue, on rare occasions they may involve underlying bone and become visible radiologically. In such cases, the diameter of the hemorrhagic lesion rarely exceeds 20 mm, and pain is uncommon. This paper describes the successful treatment of two cases of huge PGCGs that led to alveolar bone resorption.

Key words: Peripheral giant cell granuloma, bone resorption, surgery.
