Pyogenic granuloma is a benign inflammatory vascular lesion, mainly found in the skin and oral mucosa. A few cases of pyogenic granuloma in the gastrointestinal tract have been reported, and the esophagus was the main site in these cases. These patients were diagnosed with pyogenic granuloma after they underwent upper endoscopy and biopsy. Endoscopic resection is a favorable treatment option fo...

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.

Pyoderma gangrenosum is an autoimmune disease of the skin that causes enlarging, painful ulcers with ragged, undermined, purplish borders. Pyoderma gangrenosum is frequently mistaken for other conditions, and early diagnosis is essential to avoid disfiguring surgery and prolonged recovery. We report a case of pyoderma gangrenosum in a patient with psoriatic arthritis that was initially treated ...

The disease process is often progressive, resulting in limitation of joint fu...

The pyogenic granuloma is a clinical entity which originates as an overexuberant connective tissue response to a stimulus or injury.^ Trauma and local irritation have a significant impact on the development of the pyogenic granuloma. This lesion is particularly important to dentists because of its common intraoral occurrence and sometimes alarming clinical course. The pyogenic granuloma is seen...

BACKGROUND AND AIM There are no epidemiological studies focusing on the association between oral corticosteroid use and pyogenic liver abscesses. The aim of the study was to assess whether oral corticosteroid use is associated with increased odds of pyogenic liver abscesses in adults in Taiwan. METHODS This retrospective population-based case-control study was conducted to analyze the databas...
