颗粒细胞瘤是由神经源细胞产生的罕见软组织肿瘤。我们介绍了三名患有这种罕见肿瘤的患者：一名患有良性肿瘤，一名患有恶性肿瘤，一名患有组织学良性肿瘤，后来转移到肺部。我们研究了仅使用组织学区分良性和恶性变异的困难。我们还比较了临床、放射学和病理特征以及恶性肿瘤、自然史和预后的标准。
Granular cell tumors are uncommon soft tissue neoplasms that arise from cells of neural origin. We present three patients with this rare tumor: one with a benign tumor, one with a malignant tumor, and one with a histologically benign tumor that later metastasized to the lung. We studied the difficulty in differentiating between the benign and malignant variants using only histology. We also compared the clinical, radiographic, and pathologic features and the criteria for malignancy, natural history, and prognosis.
