Pyogenic granuloma is a type of inflammatory hyperplasia often seen in the oral cavity and occurs in response to stimuli such as local irritants and hormonal factors. Pyogenic granulomas associated with pregnancy are referred to as pregnancy tumors. This report describes the presentation and surgical management of a large pregnancy tumor occurring in a patient with an overlying isolated facial port-wine stain.

The peripheral ameloblastoma (PA), also known as extraosseous ameloblastoma, is a rare soft tissue tumor of odontogenic origin, accounting for 1–5% of all ameloblastoma. In some cases, saucerization of underlying bone is the only radiological evidence of this lesion, and PA has identical histological characteristics of intraosseous ameloblastoma. However, it is slow growing, less aggressive, and less invasive in nature. The present report describes a rare case of PA in the maxillary labial gingiva of a 37-year-old man with port-wine vascular malformation. PA was clinically diagnosed as a pyogenic granuloma, and following the surgical treatment of the lesion, its histological features were of ameloblastoma. This case illustrates the importance of including peripheral ameloblastoma in the differential diagnosis of painless exophytic gingival swelling.

Pyogenic granuloma is one of the inflammatory hyperplasia seen in the oral cavity. This term is a misnomer because the lesion is unrelated to infection and in reality arises in response to various stimuli such as low- grade local irritation, traumatic injury or hormonal factors. Clinically, oral pyogenic granuloma is a smooth or lobulated exophytic lesion manifesting as small, red erythematous papules on a pedunculated or sometimes sessile base, which is usually hemorrhagic. The surface ranges from pink to red to purple, depending on the age of the lesion. Because of the high frequency of pyogenic granuloma in the oral cavity, especially during pregnancy, and necessity for proper diagnosis and treatment, a complete information and investigations about this lesion, in addition its treatment is presented. The study emphasizes the clinical follow-up after the treatment of patients that present pyogenic granuloma. Follow-up over 19 months of surgical procedures demonstrated the maintenance of a periodontal health decreases the chances of recurrence.Update Dent. Coll. j: 2015; 5 (1): 26-29

AbstractA non-specific, conditioned gingival enlargement, pyogenic granuloma is a reactive lesion that can occur anywhere on mucosa or skin. In the oral cavity, the gingiva is the most frequent site. The recurrence rate is up to 15%. The most common cause of pyogenic granuloma is local irritating factor. This case report describes a recurrent pyogenic granuloma in a 35 year old patient and its successful surgical management.

O granuloma piogênico (GP) é um processo proliferativo não neoplásico. Este termo entretanto, é equivocado, uma vez que não está relacionado a qualquer infecção, não contém pus e não é um verdadeiro granuloma. A ocorrência do GP recorrente associado a lesões vasculares na pele, tais como manchas de vinho do porto, tem sido descrita na literatura. Paciente do gênero masculino com 23 anos de idade foi atendido na Universidade Federal do Maranhão apresentando uma lesão com características de granuloma piogênico na vestibular do primeiro molar, associada à mancha vinho do porto. O diagnóstico foi confi rmado através de biopsia excisional e análise histopatológica. Devido à recorrência da lesão após a abordagem cirúrgica, injeções intralesionais de corticoides foram realizadas três vezes. Após dois anos de acompanhamento, não houve recorrência. Pode-se concluir que, apesar da alta prevalência de recorrência do granuloma piogênico, injeções intralesionais com corticoides podem ser uma alternativa ao tratamento cirúrgico convencional.
