摘要
The diagnosis of oral lesions is based on clinical history, clinical examination and imaging exams. Different imaging modalities are available for the diagnosis and follow-up of these lesions such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, color-Doppler ultrasound, angiography and positron emission tomography. To date, color-Doppler ultrasound is considered the first-line imaging approach since it provides a non-invasive, cost-effective, real-time evaluation of oral anomalies. It provides both morphological and vascular information which are useful to determine the best therapeutic options. Differential diagnosis of a bleeding lobular mass of the tongue is, however, not always easy and includes several vascular and non-vascular lesions. We present herein a case of pyogenic granuloma of the tongue that at Color-Doppler US appeared as hypervascular lesion. © 2014, Società Italiana di Ultrasonologia in Medicina e Biologia (SIUMB).
