[Lobular capillary hemangioma on the floor of the mouth (pyogenic granuloma). Report of a case and literature review].

Abstract

Lobular capillary hemangioma or pyogenic granuloma is a benign lesion with a focal reactive development of fibrovascular tissue and endotelial proliferation. It can appear to any age in different locations and usually has the aspect of a pediculate mass with or without ulceration zones on the area. Its treatment is the simple surgical removal and the control of the traumatic and infectious influential factors. We report a case of pyogenic granuloma on the floor of the mouth making a literature review at respect of that common clinical entity.
