Multiple giant cell granuloma – a case report

Journal Title: Polski Przegląd Otorynolaryngologiczny - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

Many cancerous lesions, such as epulides, may be determined during routine dental check-ups. It is possible because the modifications are located on the mucous membrane of the alveolar process of the maxilla or the mandible, and contain characteristic bluish or purple tint. The division of the epulides is basing on clinical and histological examination, we can distinguish: pyogenic granuloma, peripheral giant cell granuloma, peripheral ossifying fibroma and parulis. They appear as a result of chronic injures, poor hygiene and even hormone therapy. The treatment depends mainly on surgical excision and the success of the surgery is correlated with the radicality of it.The main point of the work is present the case of simultaneous occurrence of the epulis of maxilla and mandible.
