“…These lesions can manifest as either sessile or pedunculated growths [ 3 ]. While radiological features are rarely observed, there have been isolated cases such as one documented by Ketelin Juliane Dal Pra et al [ 5 ], in which radiographs showed bone loss, particularly horizontal bone loss. Histologically, pyogenic granuloma is characterized by a significant infiltration of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and neutrophils within arterial regions demarcated by endothelial lining.…”

Pyogenic granuloma is a common reactive oral lesion primarily found in the gingiva and rarely in extraction sockets. While it can develop at any age, it is more prevalent in the third and fourth decades of life with a higher occurrence in females. Various factors contribute to its development and surgical removal is the gold standard treatment; however, there are various other methods available. This case report documents a rare event in which a female patient in her early 40s presented with an exophytic lesion affecting the extraction socket of her maxillary right lateral incisor. The lesion was effectively removed through surgical excision. Additionally, it explores the clinical features and pathogenesis of this lesion. The purpose of this case report is to shed light on the uncommon incidence of pyogenic granuloma following tooth extraction. This non-neoplastic vascular growth often presents as an erythematous, ulcerated lesion with a tendency to bleed, with either a sessile or pedunculated base. Our case is one of only five instances documented in the literature, underscoring the importance of knowledge and timely response in such unusual circumstances. We emphasize the significance of early detection and management for improved patient outcomes and a better understanding of this rare condition.

“…The term "PG" or "granuloma pyogenicum" was stated by Hartzell in 1904. This non-neoplastic reactive lesion is commonly occurring in the oral cavity as a response to trauma, chronic local irritation, and hormonal disturbances (1). The term pregnancy tumor is also used when it occurs in pregnant women.…”

Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a common tumor-like growth observed in response to local irritation, trauma, or hormonal disturbances. It is among the frequently encountered oral lesions occurring at the gingiva. Surgical excision and removal of the underlying cause is the preferred method of treatment. Scalpel, cryosurgery, and laser are used in order to remove this lesion. Currently, different lasers are used for the surgery of PG, which include Carbon dioxide; Neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet; Diode; Erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet; and Erbium, chromium-doped yttrium, scandium, gallium and garnet. This case report aims to briefly review clinical and radiographic findings of PG along with a detailed discussion on its management through a 980-nm diode laser.

Pregnancy pyogenic granuloma is considered a benign common growth that usually develops on the gingiva in the second and third trimester of gestation, in response to local irritation, trauma or hormonal factors. Here, the authors report a case of a primigravida who presented an extragingival pyogenic granuloma with a rapid progression in the post-partum. The occurrence on the lower lip in the first few days after delivery was a relatively rarity in the present case which provoked a meaningful state of anxiety and cancerophobia to the female. Complete excision was curative and brought immediate relief of pain and discomfort. This clinical report highlights the possibility of pyogenic granuloma presenting like a rapid-growing mass on the lip and the importance of clinical differential diagnosis of such presentation in this atypical location.
