Odontogenic keratocysts and central giant cell granulomas are distinct entities of separate origin that may appear simultaneously in the jaw, making them difficult to differentiate. The objectives of this paper are to report a case of a 54-year-old man presenting with a large lesion in the right mandible and to describe the histological characteristics of that lesion. Imaging revealed tumefaction and multilobulation. The case was surgically managed. Histopathological examination revealed that the lesion was a hybrid of an odontogenic keratocyst and a central giant cell granuloma. It remains unclear as to whether this lesion represented a coincidental or related injury. Since both types of lesion involved have a high rate of recurrence, however, long-term follow-up is scheduled.

Background: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by mutations in the TSC1 and TSC2 genes, leading to the dysregulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. This dysregulation results in the development of benign tumors across multiple organ systems and poses significant neurodevelopmental challenges. The clinical manifestations of TSC vary widely and include subependymal giant cell astrocytomas (SEGAs), renal angiomyolipomas (AMLs), facial angiofibromas (FAs), and neuropsychiatric conditions such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
