Pyogenic granuloma, also known as lobular capillary hemangioma, is a common benign vascular proliferative lesion that can present at any age on the skin or mucous membranes. Most lesions do not exceed 2 cm, but there are a handful of giant cutaneous pyogenic granulomas that have been reported, often in individuals with underlying immune dysfunction. Here, we report the first giant pyogenic gran...

Pyogenic granuloma is thought to represent an exuberant tissue response to local irritation or trauma. It is a tissue reactional to constant minor trauma and might be related to hormonal changes. Clinically these lesions usually present as single nodule or sessile papule with smooth or lobulated surface. The size at diagnosis may vary from a few millimeters to several centimeters. Pyogenic gran...

introduction: pyogenic granuloma (pg) is a prevalent inflammatory hyperplasia of skin and oral mucosa which is often caused by constant low-grade local irritation, traumatic injury or hormonal factors. in many cases, gingival irritation and inflammation due to poor oral hygiene are precipitating factors. oral pg occurs predominantly on the gingiva, but it is also encountered on the lips, tongue...

Pyogenic granuloma is a benign vascular tumor that may affect the gastrointestinal tract. This report describes a rare case of sigmoid-colon pyogenic granuloma in a 4-month-old boy causing intussusception. Resection and anastomosis were curative. The mother had history of high dose of progesterone exposure during initial weeks of conception for vaginal bleeding. This may point towards etiology ...

Acral angioosteoma cutis is a rare disease first described in 2006 that is characterized by vascular proliferation with ossification at the acral area, and which bears clinical similarity to pyogenic granuloma. However, there is no lobular pattern in the capillary proliferation that is a typical histopathological feature in pyogenic granuloma. Metaplastic cutaneous ossification is associated wi...

Pyogenic granuloma (PG) of the glans penis in children is a rare entity. We herein report young boy who develops PG after angioembolisation procedure.

A 65-year-old man with a history of cerebral infarctionwas referred to our hospital for investigations to find the cause of recurring melena, which he had been experiencing for 2 months. At a previous hospital, he had had an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and a colonoscopy that failed to show a cause for his bleeding, and an abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan, which detected a strongly e...

Background and aim: Pyogenic granuloma is a small, red, benign vascular tumor usually occuring after penetrating injury in skin. Different therapies such as laser, surgery and electro surgery have been offered for its treatment. Each of these therapies has advantages and disadvantages. In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic effects of cryotherapy and electrocautery on pyogenic granul...

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...
