BACKGROUND Central Giant Cell Granuloma (CGCG) is an intraosseous lesion consisting of cellular fibrous tissue that contains multiple foci of hemorrhage, aggregations of multinucleated giant cells and occasionally trabeculae of woven bone1. METHODS we are presenting a case of Central Giant Cell Granuloma on Maxilla. Extra oral examination revealed a diffuse swelling on the left side of face causing slight obliteration of nasio - nasolabial labial fold resulting in facial asymmetry & Intraoral examination shows a purple expansile mass in the region of upper left 26, 27 and 28 edentulous areas. CONCLUSIONS Giant Cell Granuloma is a rare bony lesion in the Head and Neck region. It is a non-odontogenic tumor never seen in any other bone of the skeleton. It most commonly affects maxilla followed by the mandible. CONCLUSIONS There is no recurrence after a long follow up period. We concluded that conventional excision is to be considered as a best method to treat central giant cell granuloma.
