Özet
Lobular capillary hemangioma, also known as pyogenic granuloma, is a common, solitary, benign neoplasm of the skin and mucous membranes. The etiology of this lesion remains unknown. Lobular capillary hemangioma can present rarely in a disseminated form, usually associated with other disorders. Two patients, aged 17 and 33, were admitted to the dermatology clinic with disseminated lobular capillary hemangiomas which appeared suddenly. There was no history of trauma in either case. The histopathology of the lesions was consistent with lobular capillary hemangioma. No associated disorders were found in physical and laboratory examinations other than mental retardation in one patient and a small hemangioma in the liver in the other. We report two cases of disseminated lobular capillary hemangioma without an associated disorder.
