“…Pyogenic granuloma is also believed to arise from hormonal changes, particularly during pregnancy. Hanick et al reports a case of female in her third trimester presenting to the emergency department with frank hemoptysis [ 3 ]. Upon examination, she was found to have a pedunculated mass that was anchored on the medial right arytenoid mucosa by a stalk [ 3 ].…”

Pyogenic granulomas are benign, typically painless, vascular tumors of the skin and mucosal surface. Recently the term ‘lobular capillary hemangioma’ has been introduced to describe the histological appearance more accurately. Major locations for pyogenic granuloma are in the head and neck region, but larynx localization is rare. In this case report, we present a case of a 36-year-old male with lobular capillary hemangioma of the larynx and discuss the related literature.

“…Management of LCH depends on the severity of symptoms [5]. If the lesion is small and does not cause symptoms, clinical observation is possible [4,8]. However, if the lesion causes symptoms and conservative therapy has no effect, surgical resection is the optimal treatment choice [2,4].…”

Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) is a type of benign vascular tumor. It arises from vascular endothelial cells and contains capillaries arranged in a lobular pattern. In the head and neck, the most common presenting location of LCH is the lips, and presentation in the larynx is very rare. LCH might not be distinct from granuloma in macroscopic views. We report a 71-year-old female with LCH of the larynx that was totally resected via laryngeal microsurgery with a CO2 laser and briefly review the literature.

ImportancePregnancy may result in physiologic and pathologic changes in the head and neck. Otolaryngologists may need to intervene medically or surgically with pregnant patients. Careful consideration of risks to both the gravid patient and the developing fetus is vital.ObservationsPatients may present with otolaryngologic complaints exacerbated by or simply occurring during their pregnancy. Symptoms of hearing loss, vertigo, rhinitis or rhinosinusitis, epistaxis, obstructive sleep apnea, sialorrhea, voice changes, reflux, subglottic stenosis, and benign and malignant tumors of the head and neck may prompt evaluation. While conservative measures are often best, there are medications that are safe for use during pregnancy. When required, surgery for the gravid patient requires a multidisciplinary approach.Conclusions and RelevanceOtolaryngologic manifestations in pregnant patients may be managed safely with conservative treatment, medication, and surgery when necessary. Treatment should include consideration of both the pregnant patient and the developing fetus.
