Genetic Profiling of Central Giant Cell Granuloma of the Jaws

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2005
Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) of the jaws is a central osteolytic lesion characterized histologically by multinucleated giant cells in a background of ovoid to spindle-shaped mesenchymal cells. Whether CGCG is a reactive lesion or a truly benign neoplasm remains undetermined, and the mechanism determining the onset of the disease remains unknown.

Treatment of central giant cell granuloma of the jaw with calcitonin

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1999
Giant cell granuloma of the jaw is a benign lesion that may cause local destruction of bone and displacement of teeth. The common therapy is curettage or resection, which may be associated with loss of teeth and, in younger patients, loss of dental germs.
