“…Testosterone in lipid and other lipids have been injected into the penis, resulting in destructive lipogranulomatous processes that mimic carcinoma (Zalar et al, 1969). Self‐injections in the treatment of erectile dysfunction can cause pyogenic granuloma (Summers, 1990). Early or atypical Peyroni's plaques can be observed as a mass in the shaft or base of the penis.…”

A patient presented with a mass in the cavernous body. The mass, 1 cm in diameter, was detected in the left cavernous body on the MRI and color Doppler ultrasound of the penis of the patient, who presented with pain approximately 3 months after a blunt trauma to the pelvic region. According to the statement of the patient, any direct trauma to the penis was obscure. The lesion was resected and pathological examination of the removed mass revealed pseudoaneurysm.

“…[4][5][6][7] However, a literature search (using Medline) has revealed no previous reports of pyogenic granuloma involving the female genitalia. This might in the past have discouraged clinicians from making this diagnosis when it was appropriate to do so.…”

A 21 year old woman presented with multiple lobulated lesions on the labia majora. The surface of most of the lesions was ulcerated revealing a glistening surface. All lesions were excised. The histopathology revealed features suggestive of lobular capillary haemangioma (pyogenic granuloma). Pyogenic granuloma is considered as a reactive hyperproliferative vascular response to trauma or other stimuli. A literature search revealed reports of a few cases of lobular capillary haemangioma of the glans penis but not on the female genitalia. This case is presented to help physicians become aware that lobular capillary haemangiomas (pyogenic granuloma) may occur at this site. (Sex Transm Inf 2000;76:51-52)

“…1,2 Differential diagnosis of PG includes mainly condylomata acuminata, angiokeratoma, Kaposi sarcoma, Spitz naevus, verrucous carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, Bowen disease, spindle cell tumours, bacillary angiomatosis and donovanosis. [3][4][5] Out of the 11 cases of penile PGs reported in the literature, only five have been reported as trauma related, three were seen after circumcision, 3,6,7 one as complication of papaverine injection therapy for impotence 8 and one after balano preputial adhesions lysis. 9 Our patient developed PG 1 year after he was successfully treated for primary syphilis.…”
