A pyogenic granuloma is an acquired, benign tissue formation of the skin and/or oral mucosa. Surgical excision is the most common treatment for these lesions. In this case report a case of a 60-year-old woman with a pyogenic granuloma in region 21 is presented. An excisional biopsy was performed with a CO2 laser under local anesthesia and the specimen was examined by a pathologist. No recurrency were observed in this case.

Capillary Haemangioma is a benign vascular tumour characterized by proliferation of blood vessels with a very striking similarity to pyogenic granuloma with a predilection to occur on the gingiva. Though the head and neck are the most common region of occurrence, but is considered to be rare occurring on the gingiva, intra-orally. The lesion clinically mimicked pyogenic granuloma but was histopathologically diagnosed as capillary haemangioma. It was surgically excised and followed up for 6 months without any recurrence.

Pyogenic granuloma, also known as lobular capillary hemangioma, is a benign vascular lesion that primarily affects the skin and mucous membranes. It is not pyogenic; nor is it granulomatous. It typically arises in response to local trauma or surgery, irritation, hormonal changes, or chronic inflammation, and it sometimes occurs spontaneously. The occurrence of pigmented pyogenic granuloma in the conjunctiva and cornea without any history of trauma or surgery is extremely rare, particularly in children. We report the clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and successful management of bilateral biopsy-proven conjunctival and corneal pigmented isolated pyogenic granuloma in an 11-year-old girl. No signs of recurrence were seen at the 3-months follow-up.

Airway tumors are rare in children. Pyogenic granuloma (PG), also known as lobular capillary hemangioma, is a benign vascular tumor usually found on the skin or in the oral cavity. Rarely, these lesions occur in the airway and cause significant hemoptysis. Most reported airway PGs have occurred in the trachea of adults. Here, we present a case of an adolescent female who presented with hemoptysis and was found to have a PG in the right lower lobe. Per institutional guidelines, this case report was exempt from institutional review board approval.

Pyogenic granulomas represent tumor-like lesions affecting the skin and the oral cavity. This classic definition can be somewhat misleading because such lesion is not associated with infection and lacks any clinical evidence of pus or histological evidence of actual granulation tissue. This case report describes a surgical excision of the growth to exclude angiomatous proliferation. The patient reported a chief complaint of localized gingival overgrowth since 4 months. Intraoral examination revealed an irregular, sessile exuberant growth in respect to labial aspect and interdental gingiva of 31, 32, and 33, measuring about 1.6 × 1.1 cm. Based on the clinical findings, the case was provisionally diagnosed as "pyogenic granuloma". A treatment was planned for the patient. A surgical excision was done irt 31, 32, 33, and the tissue was sent for histopathological examination, which was suggestive of a healing type of pyogenic granuloma.

BACKGROUND: Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a common benign vascular neoplasia. Optimal treatment should have an aesthetically pleasant scar and a low recurrence rate. No treatment method that is fully effective in solving these has been demonstrated. Silver nitrate cauterization is another method for the management of PG lesions. OBJECTIVE: The effects of silver nitrate on the treatment of PG have not been sufficiently investigated and should be investigated with objective data and a controlled study. METHODS: The prospective clinical trial was designed to compare silver nitrate cauterization with surgical excision treatment. Procedure times and procedure costs, comfort and satisfaction scales, recurrences, the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Score, and the Vancouver Scar Scale were compared to evaluate treatments. RESULTS: Silver nitrate treatment had lower procedure times, costs, and better satisfaction and comfort scale scores. The scar assessment scores were better for the silver nitrate treatment. The patients in both groups were successfully treated and no recurrence was seen. CONCLUSION: Silver nitrate cauterization is low-cost, fast, safe, reliable, and effective with good aesthetic results for the treatment of PG lesions. This study shows that silver nitrate cauterization is a good alternative to surgical excision in the management of PG.

Background: Intravenous lobular capillary hemangioma (IVLCH) of the neck is a kind of rare benign tumor of vein. Purpose: In this paper, we report two female patients who were hospitalized because of neck masses. Results: The tumors in the neck veins of our patients were white oval masses with pedicle, clearly defined and of different sizes. Their immunohistochemical staining results showed CD31 (+), CD34 (+), SMA (+), ERG (+). The pathological diagnosis was intravenous lobular capillary hemangioma. Conclusions: Due to the location, morphology and immunohistochemistry, This lesion needs to be distinguished from other intravascular lesions such as thrombus, hemangiosarcoma and papillary endothelial hyperplasia.

We present the endoscopic finding of a juxtapapillary duodenal pyogenic granuloma in a patient under study for chronic recurrent anemia. The images show the presence of an enlarged papilla, with an exophytic growth of erythematous and friable tissue at its lower border. Although this is a very rare entity, it is necessary to take it into account in the differential diagnosis of refractory anemia because there is an effective endoscopic treatment for it.

INTRODUCTION: Oral pyogenic granulomas (PGs) presenting in association with dental implants are uncommon occurrences. While tooth-associated PGs are well-documented in the literature, there are only seven case reports with biopsy-confirmed diagnoses of PG related to dental implants. This case report details the treatment of an intraoral PG related to dental implants that had been osseointegrated and asymptomatic for 10 years. CASE PRESENTATION: A 39-year-old female presented with a hyperplastic erythematous mass that encompassed the dental implants in the position of the maxillary central incisors. Surgical exploration of the site revealed nonintegrated, particulate bone material distributed throughout the peri-implant tissues approximating the granuloma. Treatment involved surgical excision of the lesion, elimination of all nonintegrated bone material, and implant surface debridement. Laser therapy was later used to manage a recurrence. Histology of the biopsied tissue confirmed the diagnosis of PG and described the presence of multiple exogenous, refractile, particulate materials in the specimen. CONCLUSION: The combination of surgical excision, implant debridement, and conservative laser therapy resulted in the elimination of a dental implant-related PG and successful soft tissue management. The localized presence of nonintegrated particulate bone material surrounding the granuloma appears to have functioned as a chronic irritant to the peri-implant soft tissues over time and is likely, along with oral bacteria, the primary etiological agents. KEY POINTS: Why is this case new information? There is a paucity of reports describing the management of dental implant-related pyogenic granulomas especially in the esthetic region. The present case demonstrates that particulate bone materials used in guided bone regeneration have the capacity to behave as a low-grade irritant to the gingival tissues. It also demonstrates the successful elimination of the tissues and management of the peri-implant soft tissues for an esthetic result. What are the keys to successful management of this case? The key to successful management of this case was adequate removal of the exogenous irritant, proper implant surface debridement, and decontamination and adequate gingivoplasty to remove all residual hyperplastic granulomatous tissues. Additionally, patient education and appropriate oral hygiene instructions were important to proper healing and maintenance of the area. What are the primary limitations to success in this case? The ambiguity of the clinical boundaries of PGs makes it challenging to guarantee complete excision beyond the base of the lesion, leading to recurrence.

Lobular capillary hemangioma mostly occurs in the anterior portion of the nasal cavity, rarely occurring in the posterior end of the inferior turbinate, as in this case. We report a case of lobular capillary hemangioma originating from the posterior end of the right inferior turbinate, which was successfully removed via an endoscopic endonasal approach.

Background: A pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a common benign vascular lesion found in the oral cavity. The gold standard treatment of this lesion, comprising surgical excision and the elimination of etiological factors, cannot avoid tooth loss in the case of an aggressive pyogenic granuloma. Because of the prominent properties of 980 nm and 635 nm diode lasers in photocoagulation and photobiomodulation, we applied these wavelengths in the treatment of a large pyogenic granuloma with alveolar bone loss. Case presentation: Our objective was to use a combination of interstitial-intralesional laser therapy, photocoagulation and laser-assisted new attachment procedure (LANAP) to preserve the teeth and periodontal tissue in a case of an aggressive pyogenic granuloma. Results: The patient was a 13-year-old Thai male with a pyogenic granuloma involving the interdental papilla and lingual gingiva of the lower left first and second molars. The teeth were also displaced by the lesion. After treatment with three sessions of photocoagulation, three sessions of interstitial-intralesional laser therapy and two sessions of LANAP, the lesion was completely resolved. The periodontal status of the teeth was improved at the six-month follow-up. Conclusion: The combination of interstitial-intralesional laser therapy, photocoagulation and LANAP was able to treat an aggressive pyogenic granuloma with tooth preservation.

El granuloma piógeno es una lesión benigna, reactiva y multifactorial que resulta de le- siones repetitivas, microtraumatismos e irritación local en piel o mucosas y cambio hormonal. Cuando aparece en la cavidad oral tiene predilección por la encía vestibular, pero es importante que el odontólogo esté consciente y familiarizado con el hecho de que puede estar localizado en otras áreas anatómicas. Clínicamente se presenta como lesión hiperplásica altamente vascularizada, de tamaño generalmente no mayor a 2 cm, pediculada en la base o sésil y de lento crecimiento. Sin mostrar preferencia por edad o sexo, tiende a aparecer principalmente en encías, labios y mucosa oral, siendo muy pocos los casos reportados en el área lingual. Es por ello que, en este artículo, nos referimos a un caso de ubicación inusual, en conjunto con una revisión de la literatura (AU)


Pyogenic granuloma is a benign, reactive, and multifactorial lesion caused by repetitive injuries, microtrauma and local irritation on the skin or mucous membranes, and hormonal change. When it appears in the oral cavity, it has a predilection for the vestibular gingiva, but the dentist must be aware and familiar with the fact that it can be present in other anatomi- cal areas. Clinically, it is presented as a hyperplasic injury highly vascular-related, with a size generally no bigger than 2 cm, pedunculated in base or sessile, and slow in growth. Without showing any preference in age or gender, it tends to appear mainly on the gums, lips, and oral mucosae, with very few, reported cases in the lingual area. Therefore, in this study, we refer to a case of unusual localization with a literature review (AU)

BACKGROUND: Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a common vascular neoplasm in children. Data on 595 nm pulsed dye lasers for the treatment of PG in children remain scarce. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the clinical characteristics and to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the 595 nm pulsed dye laser for the treatment of PG in children. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case series. METHODS: A retrospective study was performed on 212 patients treated for PG with a 595 nm pulsed dye laser. SPSS version 19.0 was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: Among all 212 patients treated, 208 showed complete resolution of the lesion, and 4 dropped out after one treatment due to bleeding. A single treatment was sufficient in 139 (66.8%) patients, while two or three treatments were sufficient in 69 (33.2%) patients. Male patients responded better than female patients (χ2 = 7.603, p =0.006). Lesions in the nonorbital region responded better than those in the orbital region (χ2 = 7.445, p =0.006). The size of the lesion affected the effectiveness, and lesions with smaller diameters (t = -5.776, p <0.01) and heights (t = -10.368, p <0.01) showed better results. COMPLICATIONS AND SIDE EFFECTS: Twelve patients (5.8%) were reported to have local complications and side effects, including edematous erythema, slight bleeding, hyperpigmentation, and hypopigmentation. The edematous erythema and slight bleeding disappeared gradually after several days. The localized pigment changes usually resolved spontaneously and disappeared completely after 6 months. CONCLUSIONS: Our experience confirmed the efficacy and safety of the 595 nm pulsed dye laser for the treatment of PG in children.
