Both central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) and ossifying fibroma (OF) are relatively common diseases. The synchronous presentation of CGCG and OF is, however, an extremely rare occurrence. We present an unusual case with the synchronous presentation of these two diseases in the maxilla and introduce a surgical strategy based on a combination of the stereolithographic model and navigation system for the treatment of gigantic OF with secondary CGCG.
