Pyogenic granuloma (lobular capillary hemangioma) is a common acquired vascular lesion of the skin and mucous membranes in the pediatric age group. Pyogenic granuloma and hemangioma of oral cavity are wellknown benign lesions. The clinical diagnosis and differentiation of these lesions is at times difficult. The purpose of this article is to report an unusual case of benign tumor occuring on ha...

Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors and they can occur quite commonly in the head and neck region [1-3]. Lobular capillary hemangioma (formerly named Pyogenic Granuloma) is a rare subtype that can be encountered in the skin and mucous membranes [4]. In the English literature, most reports include lesions of the oral cavity, face and nasal cavities. Although the relationship with female sex h...

Capillary hemangioma also known as lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) or pyogenic granuloma is a benign, vascular lesion of unknown origin, composed of blood vessels and are probably developmental rather than neoplastic in origin. They usually affect skin and mucous membranes of the oral cavity and rarely nasal mucosa. LCH bleeds on manipulations due to high vascularity. Microtraumas and hormon...

Background. LCH is a benign vascular growth of the skin and mucous membranes commonly affecting the head and neck. Since it was first described in the nineteenth century, this entity has been variously known as "human botryomycosis" and "pyogenic granuloma." The shifting nomenclature reflects an evolving understanding of the underlying pathogenesis. We review the histopathology of and current e...

Pyogenic granuloma (also known as lobular capillary hemangioma) is a benign and vascular lesion of the skin and mucous membranes that is frequently seen in the head and neck region. Although the etiology of the condition is still unknown, some conditions, such as trauma, poor oral hygiene, viral or fungal infections, and periodontal and gingival diseases, are considered to be related to the for...
