摘要
This is an article reporting a case of granular cell tumor in the left breast in a 58 year old lady. Patient presented with a 3 × 3 cm mass in the left breast. Mammography reported a BIRADS 5 lesion in the left breast. With a clinical and radiological diagnosis of malignancy, patient was sent for FNAC (Fine needle aspiration Cytology). The cytology report was granular cell tumor. Following this patient underwent wide excision of the mass. Histopathology confirmed the cytological diagnosis of granular cell tumor of the breast. Patient is on regular follow up and is presently free of disease. The case report is followed up by a brief review of literature of granular cell tumor of the breast. © Indian Association of Surgical Oncology 2015.
