Pyogenic granuloma is a growth of connective tissue that resembles a reactive tumor, but of a non-neoplastic nature. The gum is the most affected region; however, lips, tongue and other areas of the mouth mucosa and skin may be affected, trauma is prevalent in these places. They are found most frequently in the second and third decades of life, showing predilection for the female gender. The present study reports the case of pyogenic granuloma in a 62-year-old patient. During the anamnesis, the patient reported that the posterior tooth traumatized the lower lip region, revealing the parafunctional habit of lip biting, with evolution time of approximately 2 months. The intraoral examination showed the presence of exophytic nodular lesion, on a septic basis, of coloration of the same color as surrounding lip mucosa and lightly ulcerated. Before clinical data, the diagnostic hypothesis was Mucocele. The treatment carried out consisted in the surgical removal and, the specimen, forwarded to the laboratory of oral pathology of the UEA, being the diagnosis of pyogenic granuloma. The patient was accompanied for 2 years and 3 months in the postoperative and presented no evidence of recurrence of the lesion. In view of this, this account shows the importance of knowing the characteristics of the lesions even when the location and age of the patient are unusual. Guiding and accompanying the patient in such cases provides good treatment and prognosis.
