A case of recurrent eosinophilic granuloma of the mandible following radiation therapy is presented. The lesion was curetted and immediately reconstructed with autogenous bone for strength and lower border continuity. Since radiation therapy in low doses is normally curative for this disease, few recurrences have been reported. It is emphasized that polyostotic disease may have a greater propensity for recurrence and that patients presenting with multiple lesions should be followed up closely, regardless of the mode of therapy.
