ABSTRACT
Intravenous pyogenic granuloma (IVPG) is a form of pyogenic granuloma (PG) in which the capillary proliferation is confined entirely within the lumen of a vein. It occurs typically in the neck and upper extremities. Histologically, this benign lesion is similar to PG of other localizations and is characterized by a lobular proliferation of capillaries growing in a sparsely cellular, edematous collagenous stroma. We report a case of IVPG developing in the palm, an unusual site of occurrence.
