Granular Cell Tumor of the Male Breast – Masquerading As Carcinoma Breast-A Rare Case Report & Review of Literature
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Granular cell tumour (GCT) is a relatively uncommon soft tissue lesion, which most often affects the tongue, skin, and subcutaneous tissue, although it may occur at anybody site. It has a disputed origin even though emerging reports and molecular studies have documented a neural crest lineage. Breast is a uncommon site for GCT more so in the male breast. Here we describe a rare case report of male breast granular cell tumor with relevant literature review
