Granular cell tumors are benign subcutaneous or submucosal lesions of neurogenic origin. In this case study one patient was diagnosed and treated successfully with complete surgical resection of a laryngeal granular cell tumor that was originated from the left arytenoid region that very rare location. There is no evidence of recurrence 2 years after surgery. Granular cell tumors should be considered in the differential diagnosis of laryngeal masses, particularly in the posterior glottis.

Granular cell tumors are uncommon tumors in the deep soft tissue of the extremities, especially those with intramuscular origin, with a good prognosis after surgical resection. We present a case study of a 30 year old man with a skin lesion on his shoulder, which was grown in size over the course of 2 months. Complete tumor excision was done and histopathological findings revealed a marked hyperplasia epidermis with pseudoepitheliomatous pattern. The pathologic report was compatible with a granular cell tumor.

Pseudoepitheliomatous Hyperplasia

Granular cell tumors of the larynx are relatively uncommon, always benign, and most commonly located in the posterior portion of the larynx. They are easily identified and should be differentiated from other lesions. A possible problem in the differential diagnosis is the presence of pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia, which overlies the granular cell tumor and which may mimic squamous cell carcinoma. Careful histopathologic differentiation is important because the laryngeal granular cell lesion should be managed conservatively, with transoral local excision usually being adequate. The histogenesis of these lesions remains in doubt, with a neural or epithelial derivation being the most likely possibility.

Congenital Granular Cell Tumor

Neumann’s tumor, also known as congenital granular cell tumor, congenital myoblastoma, congenital epulis, was first described by Neumann in 1871. It’s a rare cause of newborn’s intraoral masses. they are usually on the maxilla and soliter , they can rarely  be seen on the mandibula and multiple. Even if it is not clinically symptomatic, surgical resection is performed because of its cosmetic appearance, negative psychological effect on the family , differential diagnosis and treatment. Neumann’s tumor is fully cured by surgical resection because it does not show recurrence or metastasis after excision.

Immunohistochemical Analyses

<p>Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare lesion of neural origin and uncertain nature. It can be a true neoplasm, a degenerative metabolic process or a proliferation trauma-induced. In general, it appears as a singular benign lesion, however, there are rare cases that are malignant multicentric forms. The most frequent orofacial localization is the tongue.  The aim of this report was to describe a case of GCT occurring on  the soft palate. Patient presented a discrete and asymptomatic nodule for approximately eight months. Definitive diagnosis of granular cell tumor was established by histological and immunohistochemical analyses. The case illustrates the occurrence of granular cell tumor in an unusual region and emphasizes the importance of including this entity in differential diagnosis of soft tissue tumors in otherwise locations besides the tongue. </p>

Unusual Location

Granular cell tumor (Abrikossoff's tumor) is a rare benign disease that preferentially affects the cervicofacial segment. It is usually a solitary nodule that may ulcerate and present pearly infiltration on the borders, while keeping a clean background and a hyperchromic halo. This paper describes the case of an ulcerated granular cell tumor on an unusual location, which reinforces the necessity of including this tumor in the differential diagnosis of nodular-ulcerative skin lesions.
