purpose: to report a case of free floating pyogenic granuloma within the lacrimal sac. case report: a 13 month old infant with unresolving dacryocystitis and history of two times failed probing and once failed turbinate fracture was scheduled for dacryocystorhinostomy (dcr). a free floating red mass was removed from the sac. histopathologic examination confirmed a diagnosis of pyogenic granulom...

Pyogenic granuloma is a benign inflammatory vascular lesion, mainly found in the skin and oral mucosa. A few cases of pyogenic granuloma in the gastrointestinal tract have been reported, and the esophagus was the main site in these cases. These patients were diagnosed with pyogenic granuloma after they underwent upper endoscopy and biopsy. Endoscopic resection is a favorable treatment option fo...

Pyogenic granuloma or granuloma pyogenicum is a well-known oral lesion. The name pyogenic granuloma is a misnomer since the condition is not associated with pus and does not represent a granuloma histologically. Pyogenic granuloma of the oral cavity is known to involve the gingiva commonly. Extragingivally, it can occur on the lips, tongue, buccal mucosa, palate, and the like. A history of trau...

Pyogenic granuloma-like Kaposi sarcoma (PG-like KS) is a clinicopathologic variant of (KS), vascular tumor caused by human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8). PG-like KS challenging entity to diagnose because its clinical and histological features encompass both pyogenic granuloma (PG) Distinction between the two entities clinically important as management different. patients requires evaluation their immun...

Lobular capillary hemangioma, or pyogenic granuloma, is an acquired hemorrhagic benign vascular lesion of the skin and mucous membranes. The pyogenic granuloma of the vulva is a rare finding and a limited number of case reports are available in the literature. To the best of our knowledge this is the first case described as a single pyogenic granuloma on the vulva.

The appearance of multiple satellite lesions is a rare complication of the treatment of a primary pyogenic granuloma lesion. We report 5 cases of recurrent pyogenic granuloma in patients aged between 4 and 31 years. The lesions resolved spontaneously after 1 to 9 months. Although the diagnosis and treatment of recurrent pyogenic granuloma can be problematic, this condition is benign and frequen...

some lesions in the oral cavity and mostly on gingiva have predominant predilection towards females, and mostly occur in the first four decades of life when changes in sex hormone levels in blood are obvious. the present study aimed to investigate the presence and distribution of estrogen and progesterone receptors in peripheral giant cell granuloma (pgcg), pyogenic granuloma (pg) and periphera...

The pyogenic granuloma is a clinical entity which originates as an overexuberant connective tissue response to a stimulus or injury.^ Trauma and local irritation have a significant impact on the development of the pyogenic granuloma. This lesion is particularly important to dentists because of its common intraoral occurrence and sometimes alarming clinical course. The pyogenic granuloma is seen...

Pyogenic granuloma is thought to represent an exuberant tissue response to a local irritation or trauma. It is a reactional response to constant minor trauma and it might be related to hormonal changes. Clinically, these lesions usually present as single nodules or sessile papules with smooth or lobulated surfaces. These may be seen in any size, from a few millimetres to several centimetres. Py...

Pyogenic granuloma is thought to represent an exuberant tissue reaction to local irritation. It occurs in second decade of life in young females. Clinically, oral pyogenic granuloma is a smooth or lobulated exophytic growth, pedunculated or sessile, which usually bleeds on provocation. Oral pyogenic granuloma preferentially affects the gingiva. On rare occasion, it can be found extragingivally ...
