A rare coexistence of central giant cell granuloma and parathyroid adenoma: Case report

Central giant cell granuloma is a reparative bony lesion characterised by abundant multinucleated giant cells within a sea of spindle shaped mesenchymal stromal cells. Giant cells are scattered throughout the fibrovascular connective tissue stroma containing hemorrhage. Its coexistence with parathyroid adenoma is very rare. Brown tumour is a close differential in this scenario. Herein we present the case of a central giant cell granuloma of maxilla and parathyroid adenoma diagnosed almost during the same time in a 58 years old male.
