AB Pyogenic  granuloma  (PG)  can  be  regarded  as  a  benign  vascular  tumor  or  as  a  reactive  vascular  process  arising  at  sites  of  previous  trauma  or  irritation.  PG  is  also  known  as  lobular  capillary  hemangioma,  granuloma  telangiectaticum,  and  granuloma  gravidarum  when  presenting  on  the  gingiva  of  pregnant  women.  It  commonly  occurs  in  areas  of  trauma  including  the  face  and  fingers.
