Background: Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) or the so-called giant cell epulis is the most common oral giant cell lesion. It normally appears as a soft tissue purple-red nodule. This lesion is certainly not a true neoplasm, but in nature, it may be reactive, thought to be stimulated by local irritation or trauma. Nonetheless, the exact cause is definitely not understood well. In appearance, lesions vary from smooth, uniformly outlined masses to irregularly developed, multilobed surface indentation protuberances. Margin ulcerations are occasionally observed as well. The lesions are painless, differ in size, and can cover many teeth. It may be a lesion on the gingiva or alveolar crest that is sessile or pedunculated, common with respect to the molars and incisors and occurs in reaction to the local response.

Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) is a non neoplastic reactive lesion of the gingiva, originating from the periosteum or periodontal membrane following local irritation or chronic trauma. PGCG manifests as a red-purple growth located in the gingiva or edentulous alveolar margins. The lesion can develop at any age, shows a slight female predilection. Usually, they cause one or the other problem in eruption or alignment of teeth, but may also present without disturbing the normal occlusion or eruption pattern. Management of these teeth depends on the symptoms. Presented here is a case of PGCG in relation to the lower right  first premolar in a 10 year old child.

Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) which is also called as Giant cell Epulis is one of the most common reactive hyperplastic lesions of the oral cavity. There are various etiologies relating PGCG which include local irritation, trauma, tooth extraction, irregular restorations, plaque, calculus, chronic infection & impacted food. One important other etiology of this benign tumor is its origin from periosteum or periodontal membrane. Excision of the lesion completely along with extraction of involved tooth is the option of treatment to prevent recurrence of the lesion in some cases. This case report describes the recurrence of the Peripheral giant cell granuloma even after complete excision in 3 months.Management of recurrent Peripheral giant cell granuloma by surgical excision of the lesion was carried out along with extraction of the associated tooth and curettage of the bone walls. Profuse bleeding after tooth extraction was managed by gel-spun. Periodic recalls doesn’t show any recurrence until one month.
