Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a benign nonneoplastic mucocutaneous lesion. It occurs as a result of chronic irritation or due to hormonal changes. The most favorable site for this fairly common lesion is gingiva, but rarely, it can occur outside the oral cavity, later often difficult to diagnose, as a diverse group of the pathologic process can produce such lesions outside the oral cavity. The diagnosis is also challenging as the lesions appear as smooth or lobulated red nodules with easy bleeding, occasionally ulcerated mimicking malignancies. The purpose of this article is to report a rare case of extragingival PG of the lower lip simulating as a vascular lesion in young male of 30 years old diagnosed by ultrasound followed by histopathological examination.
化脓性肉芽肿(PG)是一种良性非肿瘤性黏膜皮肤病变。它是由慢性刺激或激素变化引起的。这种相当常见的病变最常见于牙龈,但很少会出现在口腔外,后期往往难以诊断,因为多种病理过程都可能在口腔外产生此类病变。诊断也具有挑战性,因为病变表现为光滑或分叶状的红色结节,容易出血,偶尔会出现溃疡,类似恶性肿瘤。本文的目的是报告一例罕见的下唇龈外PG病例,该病例模拟为血管病变,发生在一名30岁的年轻男性身上,通过超声诊断,随后进行了组织病理学检查。
