Central Giant Cell Granuloma with Cosmetic Deformity and its Treatment without A Scar
Journal Title: Istanbul Medical Journal - Year 2020, Vol 21, Issue 4
Abstract
Central giant cell granuloma is a non-neoplastic proliferative lesion of unknown aetiology, and may cause severe local destruction. It occurs mostly in the mandible, but can also be found in the maxilla. Surgical excision is the mainstay of treatment. We managed this case by curettage via intranasal incision without producing external scar in a young woman.
