Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of perianal granular cell tumor: A case report and literature review
Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm. At present, there is limited information available on the incidence, diagnosis, and treatment of GCTs. Therefore, we perform magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of a perianal GCT case and review the literature of other reported cases to obtain a...

| description | Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm. At present, there is limited information available on the incidence, diagnosis, and treatment of GCTs. Therefore, we perform magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of a perianal GCT case and review the literature of other reported cases to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of the disease. Here, we describe a rare case of perianal GCT in a 53-year-old female who presented with recurrent abdominal pain. Contrast-enhanced MRI demonstrated a well-defined perianal GCT mass, and the diagnosis was confirmed by immunostaining after mass excision. During a 10-month follow-up, there had been no evidence of recurrence. In addition, we discussed the findings of other perianal GCT cases, with regard to their age, gender, MRI analysis results, pathologic features, and treatment outcomes.
