Resumo: The etiopathogenesis of some non-neoplastic benign proliferative lesions remain uncertain. This is the case of giant cell lesions (CGCL), which despite its benign and asymptomatic nature, may display aggressive behavior. Clinical and radiographic aspects may vary greatly, though histopathologically, few to many multinucleated giant cells, fibroblasts, ovoid mesenchymal cells, and loosely arranged stroma are often observed. The objective of this study is to present the satisfactory outcome of a CGCL in the maxilla treated exclusively with intralesional corticosteroid injections in a 30-year-old patient, who presented with a swelling in the region of teeth 14 and 15, asymptomatic, and displaying radiographic features of an odontogenic cyst. Even though surgery is the first-line treatment option, intralesional corticosteroid was an effective strategy to manage a relatively large lesion.
