Sumario:Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a vascular tumor originating from the skin and mucosal membranes. The most common sites include the oral and nasal cavities. It appears as a solitary erythematous lesion that bleeds easily. Various triggers were present in the literature such as pregnancy, drugs, and trauma. Trauma to the nose such as nose piercing was reported several times. However, there has been only one case study that has reported rhinoplasty as a potential trigger for the development of PG. Here, we report a case of recurrent PG following rhinoplasty in a 45-year old female.
