Description
ABSTRACT:
Pyogenic granuloma is a non-neoplastic soft tissue overgrowth of skin or mucous membrane
usually related to inflammatory etiology. It has various etiologic factors; upregulation of
female steroid hormones is one of them. Here, we are reporting a case of pyogenic granuloma
present on the left lateral border of the tongue in a lactating mother. Unlike the most pregnancy
associated pyogenic granulomas, it did not undergo regression post parturition. The possible
role of the hormones in the formation of pyogenic granuloma is also discussed here.
