Palatal pyogenic granuloma: a common lesion in an uncommon location

Piyojenik granülom, ağız boşluğunda yaygın görülen bir tümördür. kaynaklandığı düşünülsede, şimdilerde enfeksiyon ile ilgili olmadığına inanılmaktadır. İsim olarak lokal iritasyon ve travmaya dokunun verdiği aşırı reaksiyon anlamına gelir. Adına rağmen, tam bir granülom değildir. Sıklıkla diş eti, dudaklar, dil ve yanak mukozasında ortaya çıkar. Piyojenik granülom damakta nadiren görülür. Bu çalışmada, sert damakta alışılmadık bir şekilde görülen piyojenik granülomdan bahsedilecektir

Palatal piyojenik granülom: sıradışı bir bölgede sık rastlanan bir lezyon

The pyogenic granuloma is a common tumour like growth of the oral cavity. It was originally thought to be caused by pyogenic organisms but it is now believed to be unrelated to infection. It represents an exuberant tissue response to local irritation and trauma. Despite its name, it is not a true granuloma. It arises most frequently on the gingiva, lips, tongue and buccal mucosa. Pyogenic granuloma of the palate is a rare occurrence. Here we report an unusual occurrence of pyogenic granuloma on the hard palate
