AB 51. Rare case of granular cell tumor of the lung in a patient with multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome and mass of the left lung

2012 
Background Granular cell tumor is a soft tissue neoplasm that originates in the nervous system and arises at virtually any body site, but is mainly found in the skin, oral cavity or digestive tract. Most are benign and reportedly malignant cases are rare, occurring in only 1% or 2% of cases. We describe a rare localization of the tumor to the lung in a patient with a known age, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome (MEN).
