Pyogenic granuloma with multiple dissemination in a burn lesion.
Pyogenic granuloma is a common vascular lesion in childhood. The occurrence of pyogenic granulomas after various kinds of trauma to the skin is quite common; however, multiple lesions secondary to a burn are very rare. For this reason, an 18-month-old girl with multiple pyogenic granulomas following a second-degree burn is reported.
