Pyogenic Granuloma: A Usual Presentation at an Unusual Site

Pyogenic granuloma, also known as Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH), is a common benign vascular tumor of proliferating blood vessels. It usually arises from skin, appearing as raised, bright red lesions which may show bleeding manifestations. Laryngeal origin of pyogenic granuloma is extremely rare. Here we present a case of 50-year-old female who presented with complaints of foreign body sensation in throat along with difficulty in swallowing. Histopathological findings of the excised mass using bipolar cautery were those of lobular capillary hemangioma arising from pyriform fossa. This case is reported for its rarity.

Abstract

Pyogenic granuloma, also known as Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH), is a common benign vascular tumor of proliferating blood vessels. It usually arises from skin, appearing as raised, bright red lesions which may show bleeding manifestations. Laryngeal origin of pyogenic granuloma is extremely rare. Here we present a case of 50-year-old female who presented with complaints of foreign body sensation in throat along with difficulty in swallowing. Histopathological findings of the excised mass using bipolar cautery were those of lobular capillary hemangioma arising from pyriform fossa. This case is reported for its rarity.
