    Abstract:
    Cherubism is a benign lesion that causes painless symmetrical enlargement of the jaws, usually with a familial tendency. We describe in two Chinese families two cases of the aggressive form of cherubism with extensive swelling on both sides of the mandible, typical microscopic findings, and apparent familial history.
