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 well- known 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 hard palate which was clinically diagnosed as pyogenic granuloma and hiatopathologically as capillary hemangioma.

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.

ABSTRACT 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 hormonal imbalance are the major etiological factors in its development. Total excisional surgery is sufficient for treatment of the LCH. Capillary hemangioma arising from the nasal cavity is rarely encountered in our practice and rarely reported in the literature. We are reporting this case of LCH of lateral nasal wall because of its unusual location. How to cite this article Gupta DK, Somavanshi S, Agrawal A, Bharti R, Shree N.

Pyogenic granuloma, also called lobular capillary hemangioma, is a benign vascular lesion of the skin and mucous membranes. While the majority of pyogenic granulomas in the oral cavity involve the gingiva, they also infrequently present at other sites including lips, oral mucosa, palate, and tongue. We report a case of a pyogenic granuloma of the tongue in a five-year old female patient.

Capillary Haemangioma

Hemangiomas and pyogenic granulomas of oral cavity are well-known benign lesions. Pyogenic granuloma is known to show a striking predilection for the gingiva and capillary haemangioma frequently occurs in the lips, cheek, and tongue. The present case report is an atypical presentation of capillary haemangioma on gingiva which is considered to be extremely rare. The clinical presentation of the lesion in our case mimicked a pyogenic granuloma however, histopathologically was diagnosed as capillary haemangioma. These lesions present as a diagnostic dilemma to the clinician and can lead to serious complications if not carefully managed.

Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is one of the inflammatory hyperplasias seen in the oral cavity. This term is a misnomer because the lesion is unrelated to infection and in reality arises in response to various stimuli such as low-grade local irritation, traumatic injury or hormonal factors. PG is predominantly seen in the second decade of life in young adult females. PGs generally are soft, painless, and deep red to reddish-purple in colour. It shows a striking predilection for the maxillary anterior area. Also, the majority of PGs are found on the marginal gingiva with only 15% of the tumours on the alveolar part. There are two kinds of PG namely lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH type) and non-LCH type, which manifest as distinct entities and differ in many aspects. Although excisional surgery is the treatment of choice for it, some other treatment protocols such as the use of Nd:YAG laser, flash lamp pulsed dye laser, cryosurgery, intralesional injection ofethanol or corticosteroid and sodium tetradecylsulfatesclerotherapy have been proposed. We hereby present a rare case report of lobular capillary hemangioma occurring in the maxillary posterior region. Also, contrary to its site specificity, it involved the attached gingiva and alveolar mucosa, thereby presenting a diagnostic dilemma. The various differences between the LCH and Non-LCH type PG are also discussed emphasising their different pathways of evolution.

Pyogenic granuloma (PG) – also known as lobular capillary hemangioma – is a benign vascular tumour that occurs on the skin and mucous membranes. Genital warts—also known as condylomata acuminata—are raised lesions that develop on the skin and mucous membranes after infection with some types of human papillomavirus (HPV). Trichloroacetic acid is very often used, given the availability of the product and its low price. We report an original case of pyogenic granuloma, by its etiology and location. A 33-year-old patient developed a pyogenic granuloma on the scrotum following treatment of a condyloma with trichloroacetic acid. To the best of our knowledge, it’s the first case of PG secondary to the application of trichloroacetic acid for the treatment of a scrotal condyloma published in the literature.

Pyogenic granuloma, also known as lobular capillary hemangioma, is a benign vascular lesion of the skin or mucous membrane with rapid growth or repetitive trauma. Rarely seen in adult, its management varies and surgical intervention is usually common. We report a case of pyogenic granuloma of the right index finger in a 46-year-old gentleman who presented with painless swelling of the right index finger after a trivial injury. Wedge biopsy confirmed the diagnosis and excision of the granuloma measuring 3 cm × 3 cm × 2 cm was done with curettage and electrocautery over the base of granuloma. The wound subsequently healed well with good functional and aesthetic outcome.

Anju Pradhan was added as an author of this paper on 04/03/2011Pyogenic granulomas (PG) are common benign vascular lesions of the skin and mucosa. They are neither infective, purulent nor granulomatous as the name might suggest-rather a reactive enlargement that is an inflammatory response to local irritation such as calculus, fractured tooth, minor trauma, rough dental restorations and foreign materials. Here, we report a case of 13 year old patient with PG and in addition to the knowledge, the importance of biopsy findings in establishing definitive diagnosis has been emphasized.
