Pulsed dye laser (PDL) is an effective treatment for port- wine stain and can cause some short- term and long- term side- effects. Pyogenic granoluma is one of its late- onset adverse effects. Herein, we present two cases of pyogenic granoluma following treatment of port- wine stain with PDL.

introduction: the primary somatosensory cortex has an important role in nociceptive sensory-discriminative processing. altered peripheral inputs produced by deafferentation or by long-term changes in levels of afferent stimulation can result in plasticity of cortex. capsaicin-induced depletion of c-fiber afferents results in plasticity of the somatosensory system. plasticity includes short-term...
