| Granular cell tumor of the breast is a rare tumor arising from Schwann cells.
Although it is usually a benign tumor, its characteristics can mimic those of breast carcinoma
clinically, radiologically, and macroscopically. The tongue is the single most
common anatomic site involved; however, a granular cell tumor may arise in virtually
any site of the body. We report on a 67-year-old male patient with a palpable breast
mass presenting as an irregular mass on mammography and ultrasound. |
