Abstract:
Intravenous pyogenic granuloma is a rare form of lobular capillary hemangioma and typically consists of an intraluminal polyp attached to the wall of a vein by a fibro-vascular stalk. It rarely occurs in the finger and its character is not enough to diagnosis clinically. Therefore, we report intravenous pyogenic granuloma which occurs in dorsal side of mid-phalanx with magnetic resonance imaging and pathological findings.
