Abstract
Intravenous location of lobular capillary haemangioma/ pyogenic granuloma is rare with less than 50 cases reported. It is extremely unusual to get a metastatic carcinoma within an intravascular lobular capillary haemangioma (IVLCH). To our knowledge, there are no reported cases of intravenous lobular capillary haemangioma harbouring a metastatic carcinoma. Here we discuss a case of metastatic prostatic carcinoma within an IVLCH along with a review of literature of intravenous pyogenic granuloma and analysis of the possible aetiological factors for the development of lobular capillary haemangioma in our patient.
