Tongue pyogenic granuloma excision by using ultrasonic scissors

Pyogenic granuloma develops as a mucosal reaction response to repeated trauma which can be a physical trauma or chronic infection in origin. In the oral cavity, pyogenic granulomas commonly occur on the gingiva owing to presence of chronic irritation by the calculus or foreign material in the...

In the oral cavity, pyogenic granulomas commonly occur on the gingiva owing to presence of chronic irritation by the calculus or foreign material in the gingival sulcus (Akyol et al., 2001). Tongue is relatively less favorable site for this benign lesion. Although the reason is unclear, the lateral part of the tongue has more risk due to its closer anatomical relation to the teeth or dentures (Croton and Kale, 2003).
