Conjunctival pyogenic granuloma associated with intravitreal bevacizumab injection.

Oded Sagiv¹, Ilia Piven, Mordechai Rosner.

Abstract

PURPOSE: To report a case of conjunctival pyogenic granuloma after intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, bevacizumab.
METHODS: A 52-year-old patient after 3 intravitreal bevacizumab injections was found to have a vascular conjunctival nodule at the injection site. A pathologic analysis of the vascular conjunctival nodule was performed after surgical excision.
RESULTS: The pathologic analysis revealed a conjunctival pyogenic granuloma.
CONCLUSION: Conjunctival pyogenic granuloma can complicate an otherwise uneventful intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injection.
