Central giant cell lesion of the mandible in a 2-year old girl

Abstract

Central giant cell lesions are rare, benign, osteolytic, pseudocystic, solitary, localized lesions that are common in the skeletal structure, but less so in the maxillofacial region. Furthermore, to perform panoramic radiography and cone-beam computed tomography, it is necessary to prepare patients properly and to position their heads carefully. However, this can be difficult in pediatric patients, who may be anxious. In this report, we describe the case of a central giant cell lesion of the mandible in a 2-year-old girl that was evaluated with multidetector computed tomography.

“…It is commonly seen in the mandible, especially the anterior region of the mandibular first molars that cross the midline (Figure 8). [48][49][50] Aneurysmal bone cysts Basic details. Aneurysmal bone cysts occur in the maxillofacial region in about 2% of cases, and most occur in the mandible and maxilla.…”
