“…Clinically, CGCG may present as an asymptomatic mass lesion or as a symptomatic destructive lesion associated with pain, perforation of bone cortex and 1,6 resorption (loss) of tooth root. CGCG typically presents as a progressive slow growing bluish brown jawbone mass lesion which starts off as an asymptomatic lesion but eventually compresses its surrounding structures leading to local discomfort which may or may not be associated with 2, 6,8,12,14,15,18 pain.…”

Mandibular aggressive central giant cell granuloma is a rare non-neoplastic giant cell tumour characterised by pain, bone destruction, tooth root resorption, jawbone cortical perforation, and high recurrence rate. This is a case of a 10-year-old boy who presented to the Dental Surgical outpatient clinic of University of Uyo Teaching Hospital with a three-year history of left jaw swelling. The clinical diagnosis was fibrous dysplasia of the left hemi-mandible. Consequently, left hemi-mandibulectomy was performed, and subsequent histopathological diagnosis was aggressive central giant cell granuloma of the mandible. This article presents this rare diagnosis and explores its classification, aetiopathogenesis, clinico-pathological features and management.
