Abstract
Pyogenic granuloma is a benign vascular lesion, uncommon in the gastrointestinal tract, and extremely rare in the small bowel. The diagnosis can be challenging prior to surgery, because of its unusual endoscopic appearance.We present a case of pyogenic granuloma of the jejunum diagnosed by capsule endoscopy and double-balloon enteroscopy and successfully managed by surgical resection.Entities:
