Description

Pyogenic granuloma is a common, benign, vascular tumor that typically presents as a polypoid mass. Various treatments such as electrodesication, laser therapy, and surgical excision have been reported and shown to have excellent results. However, preferable sites of PG include the fingers and the face that may be cosmetically and anatomically difficult to treat with these invasive methods and the majority of pyogenic granuloma that occurs in children older than 1 year is also difficult to treat with them. We describe “ligation therapy”, which is a simple, minimally invasive procedure, and this technique can be easily performed for these difficult cases. We also believe that this technique be considered as the first choice of treatment for the pedunculated type of pyogenic granuloma
