Giant cell granuloma is a rare, benign non-neoplastic, aggressive tumor that originates mainly from the maxilla and mandible. It affects all age groups and is more commonly seen in children. We describe a 17-year-old female that presented to the Pediatrics Emergency room with a history of right lower jaw pain. Examination revealed a bone-like buccal vestibular swelling on the lower right tooth, a bone-like lingual swelling, and a pink gingival overgrowth lesion. The biopsy of the lesion revealed a central giant cell granuloma. Tissue biopsy with histopathological examination is diagnostic and surgical excision is the gold standard of treatment.
巨细胞肉芽肿是一种罕见的、良性非肿瘤性侵袭性肿瘤，主要起源于上颌骨和下颌骨。它影响所有年龄组，在儿童中更常见。我们描述了一名17岁女性，她因右下颌疼痛病史就诊于儿科急诊室。检查发现右下牙颊侧前庭有骨样肿胀、舌侧骨样肿胀以及粉红色牙龈增生病变。病变活检显示为中央型巨细胞肉芽肿。组织活检及组织病理学检查具有诊断意义，手术切除是治疗的金标准。
