Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a common skin tumour whose aetiology is unknown. There is a significant recurrence rate whatever method of treatment is used, and there are many studies in the literature on the treatment of recurrence. In our experience, the most effective way of preventing recurrence is the complete removal of the tumour using the microscope, operating in a bloodless field. Only then can the whole tumour with its supply vessels be reliably removed. 20 cases of PG on the hand, three cases in the shoulder-neck area and one case on the foot have been treated in our department over a period of 4 years. Five of these were recurrences and all involved the hand. Three of these were infected. 17 patients were followed for 3 months to 3.5 years. There were no recurrences in these patients, all of whom were operated on using the method described above.
