Rare Pediatric Vaginal Granular Cell Tumor: A Case Report.

Granular cell tumors (GCTs) are usually benign and occur primarily in the trunk and head. Vaginal tumors are rare, particularly in children. A 9-year-old girl was admitted with irregular vaginal bleeding for 1 year. The bleeding had worsened in the previous 1 month. B-ultrasound and computed tomography showed a round mass in the vagina. We performed vaginoscopy using a hysteroscopic exploration and tumor resection via an open technique. The pathology of the resected tumor confirmed a vaginal wall GCT. No recurrence was noted in the following 16 months. To our knowledge, our prepubescent girl is the youngest patient with GCT in the literature. Histopathological evaluation and complete tumor resection with clear margins is the primary treatment for benign or malignant GCTs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
