DE LAS FUENTES-MONREAL, Miren; ESTEBAN, Cynthia Lana; MUNOZ-GUERRA, Mario Fernando  y  VERDE-SANCHEZ, Laura. Giant cell granuloma of the jaw. Treatment of a recurrence and dental rehabilitation: a case report. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.2, pp.87-91.  Epub 17-Oct-2022. ISSN 2173-9161.  https://dx.doi.org/10.20986/recom.2022.1325/2021.

Giant cell granuloma (GCG) is a pathology of unclear aetiology that appears after trauma or inflammatory processes. It may be asymptomatic, have an early presentation as a mass with inflammatory reaction, or behave in a locally aggressive manner. Diagnosis results from a combination of clinical, radiological and histological data. Treatment can be surgical, with more or less extensive surgery, as well as medical with different drugs.

We present the case of a patient who underwent surgery for a mandibular GCG who came to our hospital with a recurrence of the lesion, which was managed surgically by segmental resection and reconstruction with a fibula free flap, adding dental rehabilitation to the treatment for a global management of the case.

Palabras clave : Giant cell granuloma; mandible; fibula graft; dental rehabilitation.
