Caso estomatológico: granuloma piogénico
Description
A 11 year-old boy was referred to our department with a chief complaint of a painless slow growing mass, localized to the gums. The lesion was highly vascular, easily bleeding, at the level of 2.1. In addition, the patient had poor oral hygiene, presenting exuberant plaque and tartar. We performed an excisional biopsy of the lesion and removed the plaque and tartar; histology confirmed the clinical diagnosis of pyogenic granuloma.
