Abstract

Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) is a rare benign intraosseous aggressive lesion commonly occurring in the mandible with its 2 subtypes, non-aggressive and a relatively rare aggressive type. The present case is a rare aggressive CGCG at an unusual maxillary region associated with swelling, rapid growth, pain and cortical growth perforation. The clinical, radiographic, and histopathological features along with difficult management have been described in detail.
