A rare case of pyogenic granuloma of the jejunum causing gastrointestinal bleeding

Two Cases of Hemorrhagic Ampullary Lesions Successfully Treated by Endoscopic Papillectomy

“…This granulation tissue-like tumor is formed as a result of secondary changes caused by trauma, chronic irritation, or infection and most commonly occurs in the oral cavity and skin and less commonly in the gastrointestinal tract ( 7 ). Ikeoka et al ( 8 ) reported 13 cases of PG in the small intestine. All patients underwent radical resection (surgery in 10 and endoscopic treatment in 3) to control bleeding.…”

Pyogenic granuloma after embolization of a duodenal arteriovenous malformation in a patient with bleeding of obscure origin

“…2 On endoscopy, pyogenic granuloma shows as a polypoid lesion with a reddish surface, and is an uncommon diagnosis in patients with digestive hemorrhage of obscure origin or chronic anemia. [1][2][3][4][5] Its treatment can be endoscopic or surgical resection. In the gastrointestinal tract, mucosal damage and exposure to gastric acid are reportedly a cause of pyogenic granuloma, and although there are some case reports in the small intestine, to the best of our knowledge, there are no reports on its appearance after embolization of a vascular lesion in the small intestine.…”

“…Its etiology is theorized to be in response to trauma or chronic irritation, such as infection [ 2 ]. On endoscopy, pyogenic granuloma shows as a polypoid lesion with a reddish surface, and is an uncommon diagnosis in patients with digestive hemorrhage of obscure origin or chronic anemia [ 1 - 5 ]. Its treatment can be endoscopic or surgical resection.…”
