Central osseous tumors, which are radiographically multilocular and have multinucleated giant cells microscopically, present the surgeon and the pathologist with a diagnostic dilemma. In the case presented here the histologic diagnosis of central giant cell granuloma conflicts with the presentation of an atypical case of cherubism. Central giant cell granuloma and cherubism are discussed briefly, and the necessity of basing the final diagnosis on clinical presentation is demonstrated.
中央性骨肿瘤在影像学上表现为多房性，显微镜下可见多核巨细胞，这给外科医生和病理学家带来了诊断难题。在本文所述病例中，中央巨细胞肉芽肿的组织学诊断与一种不典型的 cherubism 病例表现相冲突。本文简要讨论了中央巨细胞肉芽肿和 cherubism，并证明了基于临床表现做出最终诊断的必要性。
