Giant Cell Reparative Granuloma

A reactive and focally destructive lesion affecting bone of the jaw, metaphysis and diaphysis of long bones
DiffDx Enchondroma, giant cell tumour, aneurysmal bone cyst

granuloma (gran´ūlō´m

n a localized mass of granulation tissue characterized by an accumulation of macrophages, epithelioid macrophages, with or without lymphocytes, and giant cells into a discrete mass.

Granuloma.

granuloma, central giant cell,

n a painless, benign, expansile lesion on bone, usually on the anterior mandible, less frequently crossing the midline of the mandible. Usually contain a number of multinucleated giant cells.

granuloma, chronic,

n (chronic apical periodontitis) a chronic inflammatory tissue surrounding the apical foramina as a result of irritation from within the root canal system.

granuloma, dental,

n a mass of granulation tissue surrounded by a fibrous capsule attached at the apex of a pulp-involved tooth. It produces a radiolucency that is fairly well demarcated.

granuloma, eosinophilic

n a granulomatous inflammatory disease of unknown etiology, usually monofocal in bone but sometimes affecting soft tissues. Sheets of histiocytes and masses of eosinophils characterize the lesion histologically. See also disease, Langerhans cell.

granuloma, giant cell reparative,

n an inflammatory lesion located near the gingival margin. It takes the shape of a mushroom, has a smooth, glossy surface, bleeds easily, and tends to reoccur after removal. It generally occurs in the third trimester of pregnancy. See also granuloma, pyogenic and granuloma, central giant cell.

granuloma inguinale

n a sexually transmitted disease characterized by ulcers of the skin and subcutaneous tissues of the groin and genitalia. It is caused by infection with
C. granulomatis, a small, gram-negative, rod-shaped bacillus.

granuloma, pyogenic,

n a tumorlike mass of granulation tissue produced in response to minor trauma in some individuals. It is not suppuration producing, as the name suggests, but is highly vascular and bleeds readily. They are histologically identical to pregnancy granulomas, but they may be found in either gender in any location, and may occur at any age. Some prefer the term
lobular capillary hemangioma to describe a pyogenic granuloma, as it more accurately describes the histologic findings.

granuloma, reticuloendothelial

n See disease, lipoid storage.
