| Abstract | Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a common benign vascular lesion of the oral cavity, characterized by rapid growth and bleeding. This case report describes the successful surgical management of an extensive PG in a 12-year-old female patient affecting the lower left incisor region. The lesion presented as a painless swelling, causing discomfort and aesthetic concerns. Diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological examination after conventional surgical excision using a scalpel and thorough mechanical debridement. The procedure aimed for complete removal and restoration of the gingival architecture. Post-operative care included antibiotics, meticulous oral hygiene instruction, and regular follow-up visits. The patient demonstrated excellent compliance and healing, with no signs of recurrence observed during the 6-month follow-up period. Surgical excision proved to be an effective treatment, providing complete resolution and restoring normal gingival contours. This case highlights the importance of surgical intervention combined with diligent post-operative care for managing extensive pyogenic granulomas in pediatric patients, ensuring long-term success and preventing recurrence. |
