  • Title: Intravenous pyogenic granuloma or intravenous lobular capillary hemangioma.
    Author: Ghekiere O, Galant C, Vande Berg B.
    Journal: Skeletal Radiol; 2005 Jun; 34(6):343-6. PubMed ID: 15565332.
    Abstract:
    Lobular capillary hemangioma is a vascular neoplasm that commonly occurs as a cutaneous tumor. When it involves the skin and mucosal surfaces, ulceration and suppuration may occur, hence the classic term of pyogenic granuloma. Intravenous pyogenic granuloma is a rare solitary form of lobular capillary hemangioma that usually occurs in the veins of the neck and upper extremities. We report the ultrasonographic and magnetic resonance imaging findings of a pyogenic intravenous granuloma localized in the right cephalic vein. The imaging and pathological findings and the differential diagnoses are discussed.
