The authors described a case report of atypical and aggressive periapical granuloma, located in the right mandibular. This is a well-written, interesting case report. It will be helpful to make differential diagnosis (e.g. spindle cell tumors, inflammatory reactive conditions) if the authors provide the information of immunohistochemical findings.

This is a well written case report.
There is some controversy in the definition of KOT in the discussion. I suggest the 2005 World Health Organization definition.

Yes- this would be a great dental school lecture.
The patient sought dental care with a chief complaint of pain and discomfort on the mandibular left first molar. The paper describes the radiographic, clinical and histological aspects of the lesion as well as the postsurgical care. A computed tomography was taken after eight months which showed the bone formation and repair.
