dc.description.abstractABSTRACT Eosinophilic Granuloma is the mildest and localized form of Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis and is characterized by clonal proliferation of Langerhans cells. It is a rare disease, accounting for less than 1% of all the osseous neoplasms. It has predilection for the axial skeleton and incidence in jaws is just 7.9%. It lacks pathognomonic clinical and radiographic trait and hence is difficult to make a correct diagnosis without histopathological and immunohistochemical examination. This report describes a case of Eosinophilic Granuloma of mandible in 30 years old male who presented with complain of unhealed extraction wound and was clinically diagnosed as chronic suppurative osteomyelitis. The final diagnosis of Eosinophilic Granuloma was made only after histopathological and immunohistochemical evaluations.
