LAUSR

Pyogenic granuloma gravidarum is a benign fibrovascular proliferative lesion usually involving the oral gingivae in pregnant patients. While it also occurs, although less frequently, on other oral sites such as lips, tongue and palate, it is relatively unusual to find it in the nasal cavity. Furthermore, lesions normally involute spontaneously after childbirth. For persistent lesions requiring surgical management, imaging has historically been limited to CT. This case is notable not only for its uncommon location but also for its recurrent nature, failure to regress post partum and the use of MRI in the preoperative planning.
