An Uncommon Location for Granular Cell Tumor in a 10-year-old Caucasian Female: Granular Cell tumor in a Young Caucasian Female

Abstract

Granular cell tumors are uncommon soft-tissue neoplasms of confirmed neural origin and are typically found in females of African descent between 30 and 60 years old.1-3 Most cases are found in the head and neck region, specifically the tongue, although there have been reports of other anatomic variants in patients outside of the typical epidemiology. We report a case of a granular cell tumor in a 10-year-old Caucasian female located on the left ventral upper arm with a biopsy confirming the histopathological diagnosis.
