ABSTRACT
Pyogenic granuloma or granuloma pyogenicum is a relatively common soft tumour of the oral cavity. However the term pyogenic granuloma is a misnomer because the lesion is not associated with pus and doesn?t represent a granuloma histologically. The lesion has a striking predeliction for females especially during the second decade of life. The most common site of occurrence of pyogenic granuloma is the gingiva. Palatal occurrence of this lesion is rare. This article is a case report of a 42 year old female with a proliferative lesion on the palatal mucosa which was clinically diagnosed as pyogenic granuloma and capillary haemangioma histopathologically.
