Abstract EN
Giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone is a giant-cell-rich bony lesion associated with abundant multinucleated osteoclast-type giant cells.
It is a primary neoplasm of bone with characteristic clinical, radiological, and pathological features.
It is an expansive and lytic lesion without periosteal reaction and prominent peripheral sclerosis.
Giant cells are also seen in other diseases like giant cell granuloma of the jaws, traumatic bone cyst, aneurysmal bone cyst, and jaw tumor of hyperparathyroidism.
We present a unique case of GCT of palate in a 30-year-old female.
