Abstract

An 18-year-old girl was referred to our hospital for a painless swelling of the left mandibular angle.Radiographic examinaion revealed a unilocular radiolucent area at the left mandibular angle. Partial resection of mandibule was done under general anesthesia.Histopathologically, some areas of the specimen resembled an aneurysmal bone cyst and a giant cell reparative granuloma, while the major portion was compatible with fibrous dysplasia.The aneurysmal bone cyst and giant cell reparative granuloma in this case were regarded to be secondary phenomena to the primary bone lesion of fibrous dysplasia.
