Description
Summary:<p>A granular cell tumor is an unusual benign soft tissue neoplasm, occurring in the tongue, oral cavity or subcutaneous tissue and rarely occurs in the breast.

Fine needle aspiration cytology was suggestive of low grade carcinoma and on histopathologic examination, it was diagnosed as granular cell tumour, with S-100 immunopositivity. &nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Keywords: </strong>Granular cell tumour; Male breast; S-100</p> <p>DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jpn.v1i2.5414</p> <p><em>JPN </em>2011; 1(2): 161-163</p>
