Résumé
Central Giant Cell Granuloma [CGCG] is a benign tumor of jaw. As compared to males, females are more commonly affected. Mandible is the common site of occurrence. Aneurysmal bone cysts [ABCs] are cystic lesions which are expansile osteolytic blood-filled lesions. These are commonly seen in the mandible, and they also show gender-predilection towards females. Concurrence of both the lesions is rarely reported. The treatment of both CGCG and ABC depends upon the extent of the lesions as well as on their nature. Due to aggressive nature of the lesions, these usually cause disfigurement of the patients' face. Wide excision is the treatment modality for aggressive lesions to avoid recurrence. We present a case of 28-year male who showed CGCG along with ABC in the same lesion, a rare concurrence
Résumé
Adenoid cystic carcinoma [ACC] is a malignant tumor of salivary glands characterized histopathologically by biphasic epithelial tumor comprised of myoepithelial and ductal cells. There is a paucity of the literature regarding the immunohistochemical labelling of ACC arising in minor salivary glands. This paper reports an additional case of palatal ACC with an emphasis on its immunohistochemical staining using three different markers. Immunohistochemistry allows a better differentiation of ACC with its closest imitators, like polymorphous low grade adenocarcinoma [PLGA], considering that the latter is lesser aggressive and demands a lesser aggressive treatment approach
