A case of mandibular reparative giant-cell granuloma in a 16-month-old girl is reported. Few similar cases have been described in the literature. The lesion was atypical with respect to its site and the patient's age. Its extension necessitated endoral disarticulation of half the mandible. Conservation of the periosteum led to complete regeneration of the resected bone, with its condyle and coronoid.

Abstract
A case of mandibular reparative giant-cell granuloma in a 16-month-old girl is reported. Few similar cases have been described in the literature. The lesion was atypical with respect to its site and the patient's age. Its extension necessitated endoral disarticulation of half the mandible. Conservation of the periosteum led to complete regeneration of the resected bone, with its condyle and coronoid.
