This article is based at the diagnosis of pyogenic granuloma, which is characterized as a benign simple hyperplastic tumor and has an inflammatory reactive component that increases in size as a connective tissue reaction, forming a repair tissue as a protective mechanism. Clinically, pyogenic granuloma is seen as a red or purplish lesion (similar to the adjacent mucosa), too vascular, with a sessile or pedunculated base, with slow growth, reaching a size that rarely exceeds 2,5 cm, the surface of which can be rough or smooth. It occurs more frequently in adulthood, with a predominance in females (mainly during pregnancy), between the second and seventh life's decades. This aim of this paper is to report a case of pyogenic granuloma on the upper lip of a patient at the FAESA's Dental Clinic.

Isotretinoin Therapy

Pyogenic granulomas are vascular hyperplasias presenting as red papules, polyps, or nodules on the gingiva, fingers, lips, face and tongue of children and young adults.  Most commonly they are associated with trauma, but systemic retinoids have rarely been implicated as a causative factor in their appearance.  We present a case of spontaneous eruption of multiple pyogenic granulomas of the bilateral periungal fingers in an otherwise healthy adolescent male undergoing isotretinoin therapy for severe nodulocystic acne. These pyogenic granulomas did not resolve spontaneously with discontinuation of isotretinoin, or first line therapeutic modalities. Their resolution did occur with administration of intralesional steroids and ablation with silver nitrate.
