Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare soft tissue tumor derived from neural sheath and Schwann cells. They are usually located in skin, viscera, subcutaneous, submucosal tissues of the head and neck, especially in the tongue and mouth. Vulva is involved in 10% of the patients. The majority of GCTs tend to be benign however local recurrences may develop. Local surgical excision is curative for benign lesions. In this article, a benign vulvar granular cell tumor is presented.

Vulvar granular hücreli tümör: Nadir bir olgu sunumu

Öz

Granular hücreli tümör, nöral kılıf ve Schwann hücrelerinden köken alan nadir bir yumuşak doku tümörüdür. Genellikle deri, iç organlar, baş ve boyunun subkutan ve submukozal dokuları, ağız ve dil yerleşimlidir. Hastaların %10 kadarında vulva tutulumu görülmektedir. Genelde benign karakterde olan bu tümörde lokal rekürrenslere rastlanmaktadır. Benign lezyonlar için lokal cerrahi eksizyon küratiftir. Bu makalede benign bir vulvar granular hücreli tümör olgusu sunulmuştur.
