Abstract
Giant cell granulomas account for 7% of all benign tumors of the jaw. They are commonly seen as asymptomatic masses. A 4-year-old boy with an exophitic, crusty, hemorrhagic mass on the anterolateral region of the right maxilla was referred to our department. Pathological examination was reported as giant cell granuloma. A mixture of prednisolone, lidocaine and adrenaline was injected intralesionally once a week and oral fluocortone was added to this therapy. A limited surgery could be performed. Intralesional prednisolone and systemic fluocortone therapy seems to be effective, as the lesion stopped growing and increase in bony structures was observed radiologically.
