Resumo: A 57-year-old woman sought dental care for an asymptomatic lesion located in the lower molar region, with one year of evolution. She had no underlying disease. Clinical examination revealed a smooth, normochromic, pedunculated nodule measuring 0.5 cm in diameter in the gingiva region of tooth 46. The diagnostic hypothesis was pyogenic granuloma. An excisional biopsy was performed and the histopathological report was peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) combined with peripheral giant cell lesion (PGCL). The literature reports that POF and PGCL have similar etiologies and may be associated with local irritative factors. This case report shows that it is possible to find more than one type of diagnosis in the same lesion, highlighting the need for professionals to keep up to date in dealing with cases that deviate from the classic pattern. This case illustrates the importance of histopathological examination for the correct diagnosis of lesions and prognosis for the patient.
