Peripheral giant-cell granuloma (PGCG) is an oral pathologic condition that appears in the mouth as an overgrowth of tissue due to irritation or trauma. Because of its overwhelming incidence on the gingiva , the condition is associated with two other diseases , pyogenic granuloma and peripheral ossifying fibroma In cats, peripheral giant cell granulomas (giant cell epulis) are the second most common gingival tumor (28.8%) after fibromatous epulis (57.7%).The reported range for age of onset is 4-19 years. Compared to the fibromatous epulis, giant cell epulides are more likely to be ulcerated, grow more rapidly, rapidly recur following excision, and are more likely to result in the death or euthanasia of the cat. Peripheral giant-cell granuloma (PGCG) is considered a reactive hyperplastic lesion, although its etiology is not entirely known. It is believed that its pathogenesis includes an excessive activation of osteoclasts, which is associated with a proliferation of macrophages, and possibly causes major bone resorption [2, 5]

Peripheral giant cell granuloma The peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) was first described by Jaffe in 1953. 1 The lesion, originally called a giant-cell reparative granuloma, is now referred to as the PGCG. The PGCG is a reactive, exophytic lesion that occurs primarily in gingival tissue and alveolar mucosa in both dentate and edentulous areas. 2 The PGCG is thought to arise from the periosteum or the periodontal. Peripheral giant cell granuloma (giant cell epuli . Pyogenic granuloma or granuloma pyogenicum is a well-known oral lesion. The name pyogenic granuloma is a misnomer since the condition is not associated with pus and does not represent a granuloma. A pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a benign (not cancerous) red bump made of newly formed small blood.
Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) is an oral pathologic condition that appears in the mouth as an overgrowth of tissue due to irritation or trauma.Because of its overwhelming incidence on the gingiva, the condition is associated with two other diseases, though not because they occur together.Instead, the three are associated with each other because they appear frequently on gingiva and. Definition: Giant-cell reparative granuloma (GCRG) is an uncommon benign reactive intraosseous lesion. GCRG occurs in the skull, jaw, hand, foot, and facial bones and rarely in other skeletal sites. GCRG is a solitary, lytic, expanded lesion and infrequently may extend into the surrounding soft tissue. This solitary lesion has a predilection. Granulomas. If you look at the slide and you see in the dermis collections of epithelioid histiocytes plus or minus surrounding lymphocytes or giant cells or neutrophils in the centre of these lesions, then you have granulomas. Granulomas are sub-classified into about four types. They can be tuberculoid, sarcoidal, pallisading or infectious Central giant - cell granuloma CGCG is a localised benign condition of the jaws.

The peripheral giant cell granuloma is a reactive exophitic polyploidy or multi nodular red purple nodules in the oral cavity, proliferates under local irritation and trauma. The present case was a slowly enlarging gingival mass with a reddish-purple surfaceis observed at the palatal gingiva in a school-girl of three months duration. Recently it started to interfere with mastication processas. Peripheral giant cell granuloma, also called giant cell epulis, is a disease characterized by the appearance of many giant cells exclusively in the oral soft tissues. This lesion has been the subject of frequent research by many authors. So far, however, the origin of giant cells has not been elucidated.A case of peripheral giant cell granuloma is reported
