Rare presentation of pyogenic granuloma: a case report

The pyogenic granuloma (PG) Also called lobular capillary hemangioma, is a prevalent tumorlike growth and vascular hyperplasia of the skin and mucous membranes. The condition arises in reaction to a chronic, recurring tissue injury that stimulates an exuberant or excessive tissue repair response. It can manifest at any age. The most common site is gingiva, extra gingival occurrence of PG is rare, although have been reported. Management of PG Depends on the area, size of lesion and patient preferences. However, the conservative surgical excision usually the curative treatment of PG. Alternative treatment modalities that have been employed include laser therapy, corticosteroid injections, cryosurgery, and sclerotherapy. In the case report has described an extra gingival PG which occurred on the lower lip in a 19-year-old female patient. The clinical and histopathological assessments confirmed the diagnosis of PG.

Pyogenic Granuloma of Lower Lip: An Unusual Presentation

Pyogenic granuloma is a benign inflammatory hyperplasia of connective tissue. It depicts an overzealous tissue response to a known stimulus or injury and is commonly found in the gingiva, especially in the anterior maxilla, and rarely on lips, oral mucosa, and tongue. It is commonly seen during the second, third, and fourth decade in females, with predilection in the third decade. This case report depicts the unusual presentation of pyogenic granuloma of the lower lip in an 11-year-old male child following a positive history of trauma and lip biting, which was successfully managed by excision under local anesthesia.

Pyogenic granuloma in pregnancy: A study at Liaquat University Hospital.

Objectives: To evaluate pattern and presentation of pyogenic granuloma in pregnant patients. Study Design: Descriptive study with non-probability purposive technique. Setting: Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Liaquat University hospital Hyderabad. Period: From February 2013 to January 2017. Material & Methods: A total number of fifty pregnant patients were included in the study and preliminary diagnosis of gingival pyogenic granuloma was made clinically. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed by excisional biopsy under local anesthesia (surgical procedure was done following consultation with primary care physician in second trimester or after parturition), and sent for histopathological examination. Removal of dental plaque performed before surgical therapy. Results: Most of the females involve were in age group of 21-30 (68%). Maxillary anterior region was most frequently involved followed by mandibular anterior region. The smallest size of lesion was 1.5mm and largest was 3cm. Conclusion: Pyogenic granuloma in pregnancy occur due to hormonal imbalance, however bacterial dental plaque, calculus and poor oral hygiene are also key factors in development.

An Aggresive Presentation of Pyogenic Granuloma: Pharmacologic and Surgical Case Report

A pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a proliferative lesion of non-neoplastic nature, relatively common in the oral cavity, usually located in the gingiva. The differential diagnosis includes lesions, such as peripheral ossifying fibroma, peripheral giant cell granuloma, Kaposi sarcoma, and metastases of malignant tumors. A 12-year-old boy, referred by the oncology department, had a lesion in the posterior region of the mandible, with a reddish color, ulcerative surface, spontaneous bleeding, and painful symptoms for about 6 months. A radiographic examination, arteriography of the face, and histopathological examination were performed to obtain the diagnosis. A diagnosis of PG was obtained. The treatment of the lesion involved sclerosis with bleomycin sulfate, embolization, and subsequent surgical treatment. The patient is currently without recurrence of the lesion for 3 years. PG in children may be more aggressive and fast-growing, causing bone resorption, and interfering with tooth eruption.

Oral pyogenic granuloma presenting as an atypically large soft tissue mass: A case report

Pyogenic granuloma is a relatively benign localized lesion of the skin and mucosa closely related to trauma, chronic irritation and hormonal changes. Clinically, the lesion appears as a smooth, lobulated, exophytic mass, exhibiting pink to reddish-purple in color and usually easy bleeding. Pyogenic granuloma has no malignant potential but recurrence may occur after surgical excision. The size of lesion varies from millimeters to centimeters, rarely exceeding 2–2.5cm whilst the larger sizes are seldom reported. Therefore, we report an unusual size of oral pyogenic granuloma in an elderly female patient.

An unusual presentation of pyogenic granuloma

Pyogenic granuloma (PG) remains an etiopathological enigma, with trauma, inflammatory and infectious agents being the commonest suspected causative factors. It is a relatively common benign mucocutaneous lesion occurring intra orally or extra orally. PG is more common in females in the second decade of life over males. PG of the oral cavity is known to involve the gingiva commonly (75% of all cases). Rarely may it present extra gingivally. Here, we report a case of pyogenic granuloma on the tongue of a 69-year-old man which is an unusual site for the same.

Pyogenic Granuloma of Nasal Septum

ABSTRACT Pyogenic granuloma also known as lobular capillary hemangioma is although rare but well-documented clinical entity. However, it is more commonly reported in cases pertaining to lesions of oral cavity and especially in female patients during pregnancy usually in third decade of life. But, here we report a very uncommon presentation of pyogenic granuloma arising from nasal septum in a 52-year-old male patient who presented to us with history of epistaxis and left-sided nasal obstruction since 4 months.

An Epiglottic Pyogenic Granuloma Presenting with Spontaneous Hemoptysis

Conclusions: This case report represents the only documented case of a pyogenic granuloma arising from the epiglottis. This is a rare but potentially lifethreatening situation as bleeding from this site is difficult to control and may lead to airway compromise. Assessment of the airway and surgical excision are necessary for prevention of recurrent episodes of supraglottic bleeding. PG are most commonly found on the skin and very rarely in the gastrointestinal tract, with the exception of the oral cavity. Oral PG predominantly develop on gingival tissue (61%)6, particularly on the anterior maxilla. Based on a review of the literature, our case represents the first reported case of a pyogenic granuloma arising on the epiglottis. Another interesting aspect of this case is the lack of an identifiable trigger leading to the development of this PG. The patient underwent surgery for cardiac stent placement approximately one year prior to presentation. PGs typically develop over the course of weeks to a few months and are most likely to bleed while in the early stages of development, when they are most vascular. This makes it unlikely that intraoperative trauma (e.g. during intubation) would lead to development of a pyogenic granuloma this long after the inciting event.

Pyogenic Granuloma: An Unusual Cause of Massive Gastrointestinal Bleeding from the Small Bowel

Small bowel hemorrhage is responsible for approximately 4% of all cases of gastrointestinal bleeding. The etiology of bleeding from the small bowel is a tumour in approximately 10% of cases. Pyogenic granuloma is a common inflammatory vascular tumour of the dermis, which rarely occurs in the gastrointestinal tract. Pyogenic granuloma is a rare cause of overt or obscure small bowel bleeding. The present paper reports the first case of pyogenic granuloma presenting as a massive gastrointestinal bleed, and reviews the relevant literature to date regarding the clinical presentation, diagnosis and management of this rare gastrointestinal lesion.

Pyogenic granuloma presenting as a rectal polyp at the site of a previous polypectomy

A pyogenic granuloma is a polypoid form of capillary hemangioma that generally forms on the skin or in the oral cavity; rarely, these lesions can also be found in other parts of the gastrointestinal tract [1]. The pathogenesis of pyogenic granulomas is uncertain, in that they might have an infectious cause or they could represent a type of hemangioma [1] [2].
