It is a soft tissue tumor, exceptionally in bone tissue, being relatively frequent, results from a focal reactive development of fibrovascular tissue with endothelial proliferation, and is associated with trauma, irritation, hormonal changes, pregnancy. Objective: to describe the infrequent location and the evolution of the disease. Clinical case: a white male patient had a history of a granulomatous lesion on the internal side of the swallow, for which reason it was previously incinerated and for rapid growth it was decided total exceresis and biopsy reporting the presence of a pyogenic hemangioma. Conclusions: pyogenic hemangioma or granuloma is a benign tumor of rapid onset and development. Local tissue irritation is the most common cause and surgical treatment is the appropriate therapy for the cure of the disease.
