Abstract
- An intravenous pyogenic granuloma is a rare, benign, intravascular tumor, which arises from the vein wall and protrudes into the lumen. This is characterized by a lobular proliferation of capillaries similar to the more common cutaneous pyogenic granulomas. We report a case of intravenous pyogenic granuloma which showed lobular capillary proliferation in the perivenous connective tissue.
