Pyogenic granulomas (PGs) or lobular capillary hemangiomas are acquired benign vascular growths that can involve the periungual or subungual areas of the nail unit [1]. They are often painful and can bleed spontaneously due to the high vascularity of the nail unit [1]. PGs tend to grow rapidly and can be friable. In addition to PGs involving the nail, other common sites are the distal extremities, face, and gingiva [2].

摘要

Pyogenic granulomas (PGs) or lobular capillary hemangiomas are acquired benign vascular growths that can involve the periungual or subungual areas of the nail unit [1]. They are often painful and can bleed spontaneously due to the high vascularity of the nail unit [1]. PGs tend to grow rapidly and can be friable. In addition to PGs involving the nail, other common sites are the distal extremities, face, and gingiva [2].
