Özet

The aim of this study was to evaluate CGCL in children in regard with age and gender of patients, and location and site of lessions. The study was conducted on 29 cases of CGCG, 4 cases of CGT and one cherubism, which were recovered from the archives of our department by searching the files from 1988 to 2005 for the age group ranging from 4 to 15 years of age. The ratios of the variables under question (occurence, gender location and site) to total cases (percentages), mathematical averages and the statistical comparison of age distribution were used for estimations as the methods of the study. The percentage of CGCL in male 68% is significantly higher than that of female 38%, whereas the occurence of the lessions in mandibula 68% is greater than that of maxilla 29%. Also, the occurence of the tumors in anterior position 57% is higher than that in all the other positions 43%. No significant difference was found among groups for the age distribution. The present data indicates a male predilection and a preponderance of anterior position of mandibula for the studied age group.
