Resumo: This report describes the case of a 44-year-old male patient referred for treatment due to a lesion on his tongue. The clinical examination revealed a nodular lesion with a fibroelastic consistency, which was pinkish-white with a pediculated base and located on the anterior third of the lingual dorsum. The patient reported daily use of alcohol and hand-rolled tobacco for approximately six months and declared no systemic diseases. The diagnostic hypothesis of pyogenic granuloma was established, and after performing hematological tests, a excisional biopsy was conducted. The histopathological diagnosis was consistent with the clinical hypothesis. The patient was advised on the relationship between pyogenic granuloma and irritative factors and instructed on brushing techniques, with a six-month follow-up established. The patient has been under observation for two years without relapses. It is concluded that the biopsy along with the removal of irritating factors were fundamental for controlling the pyogenic granuloma.
