The name "pyogenic granuloma" is misleading, as it is neither pyogenic or a true granuloma. Rather, it is a capillary hemangioma of lobular subtype, which is why such a lesion is prone to bleeding. [5] It is also not truly pyogenic (pus-producing), as the cause is hormonal or traumatic and has no association with infection or pus production.
Granuloma annulare is a skin disease of unknown cause in which granulomas are found in the dermis of the skin, but it is not a true granuloma. Typically, a central zone of necrobiotic generation of collagen is seen, with surrounding inflammation and mucin deposition on pathology.
This type of epulis is neither pyogenic ("pus producing") nor a true granuloma, but it is a vascular lesion.About 75% of all pyogenic granulomas occur on the gingiva, [2] growing beneath the gingival margin, [8] although they may also occur elsewhere in the mouth or other parts of the body (where the term epulis is inappropriate).
Neoplasms of the nailbed may often present with paronychia, ingrown nail, onycholysis, pyogenic granuloma, nail-plate dystrophy, longitudinal erythronychia, bleeding, and discolorations. [ 1 ] : 792 There are various benign and malignant neoplasms that may occur in or overlying the nail matrix and in the nailbed, and symptoms may include pain ...

Pyogenic granuloma. A pyogenic granuloma, is a small benign vascular tumor that primarily involves the skin (88.2%) and mucous membranes. [6] Pyogenic granuloma appears as a red macule that grows rapidly, turns into a papule and eventually becomes pedunculated, being attached to a narrow stalk. [8]

Epulis fissuratum is a benign hyperplasia of fibrous connective tissue which develops as a reactive lesion to chronic mechanical irritation produced by the flange of a poorly fitting denture. [1] More simply, epulis fissuratum is where excess folds of firm tissue form inside the mouth, as a result of rubbing on the edge of dentures that do not ...
