A 60-year-old man presented with primary complaint of a large painless swelling of
the left side of the mandible. On examination, an obvious swelling was present on
the left side of the body of the mandible, extending anteriorly from the left mandibular
first premolar to the angle of the mandible posteriorly; involving the lower border
of the mandible, causing its expansion and thinning and also showing buccolingual
cortical expansion. The patient's medical history was noncontributory, and physical
examination revealed no other abnormality. The lesion was covered by normal-appearing
mucosa. A panoramic radiograph revealed the presence of an ill-defined, multilocular
radiolucent lesion in the body of mandible (Figure 1) .
