Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a kind of inflammatory hyperplastic soft tissue lesion of the oral cavity. The lesion, however, is not related to infection and arise as a reactive growth in response to various stimuli. It has a very high vascularity because of the presence of numerous prominent capillaries. The lesion has a bleeding tendency, even after a minor traumatic episode, such as during mastication. Bleeding may be at times very severe and difficult to control. We present the case of a profusely bleeding young PG in a young teenage child.
化脓性肉芽肿(PG)是口腔的一种炎性增生性软组织病变。然而,该病变与感染无关,而是作为对各种刺激的反应性生长而出现。由于存在大量突出的毛细血管,它具有非常高的血管密度。即使在轻微创伤事件后,如咀嚼时,该病变也有出血倾向。出血有时可能非常严重且难以控制。我们报告一例青少年儿童发生大量出血的化脓性肉芽肿病例。
