“…[3] Other sites described in the literature include hand and feet, axial skeletons and long bone, facial bone, sphenoid, ethmoid bone, orbit, nose, and cranial vault. [1–36716–1827] GCRG of the temporal bone may be associated with squamous cell carcinoma. [9] It may also be associated with genetic conditions like neurofibromatosis-1 (NF-1) and Noonan syndrome.…”

Background:Giant cell reparative granulomas (GCRGs) are rare lesions in the cranial bones. We present a case of this rare lesion emanating from the clivus and replacing the sphenoid sinus, a highly unusual location for this entity.Case Description:The case and clinical course of a 29-year-old female who presented with a large sphenoid mass are described here. The patient presented with symptoms of severe headache and diplopia; imaging demonstrated a large sphenoid mass which was completely resected via an endoscopic endonasal approach. It was based on the clivus and was shown to be a GCRG.Conclusion:GCRGs are benign granulomatous lesions which should be considered in the differential in the setting of a sphenoid mass.

“…A It may be due to increased vascularity of the nasal mucosa due to effects of estrogen, which is also associated with the development of giant cell reparative granulomas of the maxilla and mandible or granuloma gravidarum 23 lobular capillary hemangiomas or pregnancy tumor or nasal hemangiomas. Nasal hemangiomas are hypervascular lesions arising in the nasal cavities during the early months of pregnancy and often involute following delivery or termination of pregnancy.…”

Background: The noteworthy changes occur throughout the female body during pregnancy, due to hormonal processes. Mostly they are self-limiting and do not harm the expectant mother or fetus, but some become pathological and require early medical intervention to limit the damage. The objective was to recognize and compartmentalize such complaints; and additionally gaining figures reflecting the frequency of such complaints.Methods: This study design consists of pregnant women coming with various ENT complaints to outpatient department. Results: ENT-related symptoms are common during pregnancy. Conclusions: Practitioners should have general idea of the etiology, clinical severity and most favorable treatment of these conditions.

“…There is a distinct gender predilection, with 65% of cases affecting females. [424][425][426] The rapid growth results from stimulation of a preexisting lesion rather than initiation of a new one. The anterior part of the mandible is a favorable site, and lesions commonly cross the midline.…”
