An Insight into Pyogenic Granuloma with Ossification: Exploring a Unique Association

Pyogenic Granulomas (PG) are reactive hyperplastic lesions that are formed in relation to some chronic irritation, physical trauma or hormonal factors. The PG may present in various clinical and histological forms. These often present as a smooth lobulated exophytic lesions and at times may show a...
