Abstract

central multinucleated giant cell lesion (LCCGM), also called central giant cell granuloma, is a benign non-odontogenic

neoplasm that can occur in the maxillary bones, especially the jaw, and is characterized to be asymptomatic and is usually an

exclusive radiographic finding. This article presents the case of an 18-year-old patient with no relevant medical history who

is found to have a radiolucent defect apically of the lower left first molar, which is removed by surgery under local anesthesia

and the sample submitted to histopathological analysis, which is compatible with central multinucleated giant cell lesion. The

objective of this article is to present this multinucleated giant cell lesion in Jaws to expand the clinical, radiographic and

histopathological knowledge to collaborate with the good diagnostic routing of nonodontogenic intraosseous lesions to our

students and dental colleagues.
