Pyogenic Granuloma at the Ileocecal Junction: Unusual Culprit of Chronic Anemia and Intussusception

Pyogenic granulomas (PGs) are benign vascular lesions usually found in the skin and mucous membranes but rarely in the gastrointestinal tract. This case highlights a large PG in the small intestine, causing chronic anemia and serving as a lead point for intussusception. We discuss its diagnostic challenges, potential for misdiagnosis, and treatment options. This case underscores the need for awareness among clinicians regarding atypical presentations of PGs. It also highlights the importance of thorough evaluation in patients with unexplained anemia and intermittent obstruction, ensuring timely diagnosis and appropriate management of this rare gastrointestinal condition.
