## TL;DR

A rare case of pyogenic granuloma on the eyebrow is reported, highlighting its unusual location and successful treatment.

## Contribution

This case report adds to the limited literature on pyogenic granuloma occurring in the eyebrow region.

## Key findings

- A 50-year-old woman had a pyogenic granuloma on her right eyebrow confirmed by histopathology.
- The lesion was successfully treated with shave excision and electrocautery.
- The patient remained disease-free after one year of follow-up.

## Abstract

Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a benign vascular tumor that most often arises on the gingiva, lips, and fingers, while eyebrow involvement is exceptionally uncommon. We describe a 50-year-old woman who developed a progressively enlarging, bleeding nodule on the right eyebrow that ultimately interfered with her vision. The lesion was managed with shave excision and electrocautery, and histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of PG. The patient remained disease-free after one year of follow-up. This case underscores the importance of recognizing PG in rare anatomical locations and considering it in the differential diagnosis of vascular lesions of the eyebrow.
