Giant Cell Reparative Granuloma (GCRG) is an unusual non-neoplastic lesion which most commonly involves maxilla and mandible. We present a case of GCRG of the nasal cavity in a young female presented with the complaint of progressively nasal obstruction. Radiological findings are usually nonspecific in this entity, therefore a good clinical, radiological and pathological correlation is needed for final diagnosis and to differentiate it from other giant cell lesions. Surgical excision is the preferred treatment modality over simple curettage.
