颗粒细胞瘤（颗粒细胞肌母细胞瘤）是一种罕见的良性软组织肿瘤，通常出现在舌头、口腔或皮下组织。经体格检查、乳房x光检查、超声检查和切除标本的大体检查发现，这种肿瘤偶有与乳腺癌相似的报道。在男性乳房中有罕见的颗粒细胞瘤病例[2,3]。我们描述了一个病例的颗粒细胞肿瘤的乳房在一个男性患者的临床印象和放射检查结果显示可能的恶性肿瘤。病理切片有助于正确诊断良性肿瘤，从而避免不必要的乳房切除或腋窝清扫。
Granular cell tumor (granular cell myoblastoma) is an unusual benign soft-tissue neoplasm, usually appearing in the tongue, the oral cavity, or subcutaneous tissue. This tumor has been occasionally reported in the breast as a mimic of carcinoma on physical examination and by mammography, sonography, and gross inspection of the resected specimen [1]. Rare examples of granular cell tumors in the male breast have been documented [2, 3]. We describe a case of granular cell tumor of the breast in a male patient in whom clinical impression and radiologic findings indicated possible malignancy. Histologic sections led to a correct diagnosis of benign tumor, thus preventing unnecessary mastectomy or axillary dissection.
