Giant recurrent pyogenic granuloma on the face with satellitosis responsive to systemic steroids.

U Tursen1, F Demirkan, G Ikizoglu.   

Abstract

Pyogenic granuloma is a common benign skin tumour. However, giant recurrent pyogenic granuloma with satellitosis is relatively rare. We present a 52-year-old man who had recurrent gigantic pyogenic granuloma with satellitosis responsive to systemic steroids. Our case of recurrent pyogenic granuloma is interesting because of its clinical presentation, recurrence following surgical excision and its steroid responsiveness. Systemic steroids may be effective in treating recurrent giant pyogenic granulomas during their high-proliferation phase.
