Abstract

A granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare soft tissue tumor that usually arises from the striated muscle of the tongue. Few literatures have reported pectoral muscle involvement of the GCT. Herein, we report a rare case of a GCT originating from the pectoral muscle below the breast with multimodal imaging appearance.

과립 세포 종양은 드문 연조직 종양으로써 주로 혀의 줄무늬 근육에서 발생한다. 과립 세포 종양이 대흉근에서 발생한 예는 매우 드물게 보고되었다. 이에 저자들은 유방 아래의 대흉근에 발생한 과립 세포 종양의 증례를 다양한 영상 소견과 함께 보고하고자 한다.
