Intravenous pyogenic granuloma is the intravasal counterpart of cutaneous pyogenic granuloma. This rare, benign lesion appears clinically as a subcutaneous nodule usually located in the upper extremity or neck in middle-aged people. It is hard to make an exact diagnosis on clinical basis, and there is a risk of recurrence because of undertreatment.
To report a case of an intravenous pyogenic granuloma located in the hand and to describe the clinical and histopathologic features of this rare vascular tumor.
An operation was performed on a 58-year-old female who presented with a small, painless mass in the right palm, and the pathologic examination revealed an intravenous pyogenic granuloma.
This rare lesion should be differentiated from a regular pyogenic granuloma and should be excised with the vein segment to avoid recurrence.
静脉内化脓性肉芽肿是皮肤化脓性肉芽肿的血管内对应物。这种罕见的良性病变在临床上表现为皮下结节，通常位于中年人的上肢或颈部。基于临床很难做出准确诊断，且由于治疗不充分存在复发风险。
报告1例位于手部的静脉内化脓性肉芽肿病例，并描述这种罕见血管肿瘤的临床和组织病理学特征。
对一名58岁女性进行手术，该患者右手掌有一个小的无痛肿块，病理检查显示为静脉内化脓性肉芽肿。
这种罕见病变应与普通化脓性肉芽肿相鉴别，并且应连同静脉段一并切除以避免复发。
