GIANT CELL REPARATIVE GRANULOMA: CYTOMORPHOLOGICAL DIAGNOSIS
Keywords:
reparative granuloma, inner canthi, FNAC
Abstract
Giant cell reparative granuloma is not a true neoplasm, rather a reactive process. It can behave aggressively if left untreated and can mimic malignant process. Hence, early intervention is essential. Herein, we present a similar case, where a simple diagnostic modality led to an early diagnosis of giant cell reparative granuloma, thereby preventing any further complications like facial disfigurement. The patient was treated conservatively and kept on follow up.
