SURGICAL TREATMENT OF PEDIATRIC PERIPHERAL GIANT CELL GRANULOMA: A CASE REPORT

Abstract

Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) is a reactive lesion which occurs on gingiva. Local factors such as inappropriate dental restorations, dental plaque and microtraumas are considered to be responsible for the occurrence of the lesion. Although PGCG may be seen in all decades of life, pediatric form is relatively rare. In this case report, a pediatric PGCG is presented with histopathological features

PEDİATRİK PERİFERAL DEV HÜCRELİ GRANÜLOMANIN CERRAHİ TEDAVİSİ: OLGU RAPORU

Abstract

Periferal dev hücreli granüloma diş etinde ortaya çıkan reaktif bir lezyondur. Dental plak, diş taşı, uygun olmayan restorasyonlar ve mikrotravma hikayesi gibi lokal faktörlerin periferal dev hücreli granüloma oluşumunda rol oynadıkları düşünülmektedir. Periferal dev hücreli granüloma her yaşta görülmesine rağmen çocukluk çağında göreceli olarak daha az görülmektedir. Bu olgu raporunda bir pediatrik periferal dev hücreli granülomanın cerrahi tedavisi sunulmuş ve histopatolojik özellikleri incelenmiştir.
