Overview
Primitive nonneural granular cell tumor was recognized in an 82-year-old man, mimicking a granuloma in the scalp. Despite its disturbing cytomorphology, this histogenetically enigmatic tumor with unusual immunoprophile (NK1-C3, CD 68 and NSE positivity; S-100 protein negativity) behaves indolently.
Key words:
