title: [Pyogenic granuloma vs. lobular capillary hemangioma. Histopathological analysis and epidemiology (Venezuela)].
abstract: A review of the literature is done concerning Pyogenic Granuloma. From two hundred and thirty eight cases of our files. Twenty four cases are separated which are considered histopathologically different and to which the term Lobular Capillary Hemangioma is more applicable. Epidemiologic studies are analyzed and conclusions are established. Pyogenic Granuloma is more a reactive type of lesion of inflammatory nature, while Lobular Capillary Hemangioma separated as an entity is considered a lesion of benign neoplastic nature and vascular origin.
