| Popis: | Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is an acquired vascular lesion that affects the skin and mucosa. The term Lobular Capillary Hemangioma was subsequently adopted to more accurately reflect its biologic and histopathologic nature [1]. Clinically, PGs usually appear as single, small, red papules with a marked tendency for bleeding. Giant PGs are exceedingly rare with only a handful of reported cases. Here we report the second case of a giant PG arising in an HIV-positive patient [2]. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. |
