Pinna granular cell tumor in a child

Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare soft-tissue neoplasm that has a predilection to occur in the head and neck region, especially in the tongue. It tends to affect the females in their 3rd to 4th decade of age. Due to its insidious nature, tendency to recur, and possibility of the lesion to be malignant, it is prudent to always GCT as a differential diagnosis when encountering a painless nodule. GCT in a child is exceedingly uncommon. Although half the cases occur in the head and neck region, a GCT in the pinna has never been reported.
