Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a benign tumor that can emerge on the skin, lips and in the oral cavity. The most common location in the oral cavity is the gums. Much less often it is detected on the tongue. We report a clinical case of PG that occurred without visible trauma on the tongue of a 21-year-old female patient in the last month of pregnancy. Surgical excision and histological examination of the pathological focus were performed, which confirmed the diagnosis. Since PG is prone to relapse, especially during pregnancy, we believe that surgical treatment after childbirth will not create conditions for relapse.
