LASERS: Pyogenic Granuloma in Children: Treatment with the Flashlamp‐Pumped Pulsed Dye Laser

Pyogenic granuloma, a rapidly developing, benign vascular nodule often arising in children at sites of trauma in the skin or mucous membrane, was treated successfully with flashlamp-pumped pulsed dye laser in three pediatric patients. Excellent cosmetic results were obtained. The authors suggest that the flashlamp-pumped pulsed dye laser be considered as yet another effective modality in the treatment of pyogenic granuloma.
