Abstract

Intravenous pyogenic granuloma, commonly known as intravenous lobular capillary hemangioma, is a rare benign tumor of the vein. It rarely occurs in the neck, and its character is not enough to diagnosis clinically. It could be diagnosed with preoperative radiologic examinations such as ultrasound and computed tomography and typical pathologic findings that demonstrate lobules of multiple capillaries lined with flattened endothelial cells admixed with fibromyxoid stroma. The authors report a case of a 32-year-old male who presented with a palpable neck mass for one month with a review of the literature. He was successfully treated with resection, including the tumor and normal external jugular vein, without any complications.
