ABSTRACT
Giant cell granuloma is an uncommon bony lesion in the head and neck region that most commonly affects the maxilla and mandible. Although it is a benign disease process, it can also be locally destructive. The most common treatment for giant cell granuloma is surgery, ranging from simple curettage to resection. More recently, nonsurgical treatments have been reported. Systemic calcitonin and intralesional glucocorticosteroids have shown varying degrees of success and, when successful, have reduced the necessity for major reconstructive surgery, thus preventing any large surgical defects. We report a case of giant cell granuloma of the maxilla that responded favorably to treatment with surgical excision, followed by intralesional injection of steroid.
