They differ from other odontogenic cysts due to their aggressive growth behaviour and high recurrence rates. Malignant or benign transformation may develop from their epithelium. Ameloblastomatous transformation of OKC is an extremely rare case. Such lesions have been described as combined or hybrid odontogenic lesions.

  • An Aggressive Central Giant Cell Granuloma in a Pediatric Patient

Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery (2019) 48:32 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40463-019-0356-5 CASEREPORT Open Access An aggressive central giant cell granuloma in a pediatric patient: case report and review of literature Yiqiao Wang1, Andre Le2* , Dina El Demellawy3, Mary Shago4,5, Michael Odell2 and Stephanie Johnson-Obaseki2 Abstract Background: Central giant cell granulomas are benign tumours of the mandible, presenting in children and young adults. Divided into non- and aggressive subtypes, the aggressive subtype is relatively rare and can occasionally progress rapidly, resulting in significant morbidity. Case presentation: We present a case of an aggressive central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) in a six year-old female. The lesion originated in the right mandibular ramus and progressed rapidly to involve the condyle. Diagnosis was made using a combination of imaging and pathology. A timely en bloc resection of the hemi-mandible was performed with placement of a reconstructive titanium plate and condylar prosthesis. Conclusion: Our case demonstrates the importance of considering CGCG in the differential diagnosis of rapidly progressive mandibular lesions in the pediatric population. Prompt diagnosis and management can greatly improve long-term outcomes.
