Abstract

Central Giant Cell Granuloma (CGCG) is defined by the World Health Organization as an intraosseous lesion consisting of cellular fibrous tissue containing multiple foci of hemorrhage, aggregations of multinucleated giant cells, and occasionally trabeculae of woven bone. An 8-year-old patient presented with painless swelling and bleeding in his upper right canine region was referred to our clinic. Incisional biopsy was confirmed that this was a CGCG. The patient was treated with non-invasive curettage and secondary intention healing. Seven-year follow-up of the patient revealed a complete resolution of the lesion and uneventful eruption of the permanent canine tooth. In this case report, a successful long-term outcome of the conservative treatment of the CGCG was presented.
