Hemangioma capilar lobular
Es una pequeña protuberancia rojiza en la piel que sangra con facilidad debido a un número anormalmente alto de vasos sanguíneos.
La causa exacta de los granulomas piógenos se desconoce, pero éstos aparecen frecuentemente después de una lesión. Normalmente se presentan en las manos, los brazos o la cara.
Los granulomas piógenos son comunes en los niños.
