A pyogenic granuloma or lobular capillary hemangioma [3] is a vascular tumor that occurs on both mucosa and skin, and appears as an overgrowth of tissue due to irritation, physical trauma, or hormonal factors. [4] [5] It is often found to involve the gums, skin, or nasal septum, and has also been found far from the head, such as in the thigh. [6]
The CPT code revisions in 2013 were part of a periodic five-year review of codes. Some psychotherapy codes changed numbers, for example 90806 changed to 90834 for individual psychotherapy of a similar duration. Add-on codes were created for the complexity of communication about procedures.
A hemangioma or haemangioma is a usually benign vascular tumor derived from blood vessel cell types. The most common form, seen in infants, is an infantile hemangioma , known colloquially as a "strawberry mark", most commonly presenting on the skin at birth or in the first weeks of life.
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (also known as: [1] "Epithelioid hemangioma," "Histiocytoid hemangioma," "Inflammatory angiomatous nodule," "Intravenous atypical vascular proliferation," "Papular angioplasia," "Inflammatory arteriovenous hemangioma," and "Pseudopyogenic granuloma") usually presents with pink to red-brown, dome-shaped, dermal papules or nodules of the head or neck ...
Microvenular hemangioma is an acquired benign vascular tumor that presents as an asymptomatic, slowly growing, 0.5- to 2.0 cm reddish lesion on the forearms or other sites of young to middle-aged adults. [2] The cause of microvenular hemangioma is unknown, however it has been associated with immunosuppression.
Although the precise etiology of targetoid hemosiderotic hemangioma is uncertain, trauma has been suggested as one of the primary causes of the targetoid look. [ 8 ] [ 9 ] Trauma may result in the production of microshunts, wherein the capillary pressure fills the lesion's lymph spaces with erythrocytes , hence promoting the formation of ...

Treatment is by surgical excision (complete removal) of the fibrous tissue overgrowth and addressing the causative factor to prevent recurrence of the lesion. [ 1 ] [ 9 ] Other sources suggest that surgical excision may not be required in all cases. [ 2 ]
