Su tratamiento es la excisi車n quir迆rgica, retirando los factores irritativos. Dentro de sus diagn車sticos diferenciales se encuentran el tumor pardo del hiperparatiroidismo, el querubismo y el quiste 車seo aneurism芍tico, que tienen el mismo patr車n histol車gico del granuloma perif谷rico de c谷lulas gigantes. Se reporta caso cl赤nico de paciente femenino de 52 a os de edad que acudi車 a consulta odontol車gica en la Facultad de Odontolog赤a de la Universidad de Cartagena, por presentar una lesi車n tumoral ubicada en enc赤a vestibular y lingual zona de anteroinferiores asociada con abundante placa bacteriana y c芍lculos subgingivales. Se le realiz車 la escisi車n quir迆rgica de la lesi車n, exodoncia de los dientes involucrados por la marcada p谷rdida 車sea, curetaje y se envi車 a patolog赤a donde se confirm車 diagn車stico de granuloma perif谷rico de c谷lulas gigantes. The peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) is a pseudotumoral exophytic lesion, very rare in oral cavity, it is primarily located in the premolar and molar area of the mandible, it usually presents bleeding and rapid growth, also, is associated with aggression or irritating factors (extraction, trauma, plaque, tartar, faulty restorations, chronic infection, food impaction, among others). Its treatment consists of surgical excision, removing the irritating factors. Within its differential diagnosis are the hyperparathyroidism brown tumor, cherubism and aneurysmal bone cyst, which have the same histological pattern as the peripheral giant cell granuloma. This is a description of a clinical case of a female patient, age 52 who attended the College of Dentistry of the University of Cartagena because she presented a tumor located in the vestibular and lingual gingival area of anterior and lower zone associated with abundant bacterial plaque and subgingival calculus. The surgeon made the surgical excision of the lesion, extraction of teeth affected by the marked bone loss, and curettage. The sample was sent to the pathology lab which confirmed the diagnosis of peripheral giant cell granuloma. %K granuloma de c谷lulas gigantes %K granuloma reparativo de c谷lulas gigantes %K hiperplasia gingival %K peripheral giant cell granuloma %K repair of giant cell granuloma %K giant cell hyperplasia %U http://www.scielo.org.co/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0121-246X2010000200013
