The combination of central odontogenic fibroma and central giant cell granuloma is extremely rare and has been reported in only 46 cases worldwide in previous articles. The lesion is called a hybrid central odontogenic fibroma with central giant cell granuloma like lesion (HCOF-CGCG) due to a histopathological characteristics of multinucleated giant cell and odontogenic epithelium in fibro-cellular background. We report a case of HCOF-CGCG in a 27-year old Thai male patient who was identified as the first case in Thailand. Radiographic examination showed a well-defined radiolucency lesion at posterior mandibular area. Enucleation and curettage were done and microscopic study revealed a fibro-cellular proliferating tissue containing numerous strands, cord of odontogenic epithelium, and numerous multinucleated giant cells. This report also included a literature review of the previous 45 cases.
