Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is an acquired benign vascular hyperplasia. Even though PG is not so rare, its etiology is still unclear. Assuredly, an association between vascular anomalies and PG is an extremely rare finding, and a proper management of these cases is not well standardized to date. Herein, we report our experience with a giant PG arising spontaneously within a port-wine stain of the thorax. Previous cases reported in the pediatric literature and strategies of treatment are also discussed.
化脓性肉芽肿(PG)是一种后天性良性血管增生。尽管PG并不罕见,但其病因仍不清楚。诚然,血管异常与PG之间的关联是极为罕见的发现,迄今为止,对这些病例的恰当处理尚无标准化方案。在此,我们报告了一例在胸部葡萄酒色斑内自发出现的巨大PG的诊治经验。还讨论了儿科文献中报道的既往病例及治疗策略。
