We report a very rare case of granular cell tumor with a center ulcer of the rectum, which was detected in a 47-year-old man during screening colonoscopy. It is difficult to distinguish granular cell tumor from other subepithelial tumors. However, our case had a center ulcer unlike previous cases. We confirmed the diagnosis using histological and immunohistochemical examinations. In addition to our case report, we discuss the morphology, size, layer of invasion, and treatment of rectal granular cell tumors based on a literature review.

AbstractAntiphospholipid antibody (APLA) syndrome is an autoimmune disease which is associated with preeclampsia and can cause thromboembolic events in several organs including the spleen. This report includes a case of post-partum splenic rupture in a woman with preeclampsia in the presence of APLA syndrome and a literature review of splenic rupture during the third trimester and puerperium. Unlike the prominent clinical manifestation of liver hematoma and rupture during preeclampsia, rupture of the spleen can be silent and mistakenly underdiagnosed.
