Abstract

Dermal non-neural granular cell tumors, also known as primitive polypoid granular cell tumors, are a rare group of distinct cutaneous non-neural granular cell tumors. Pediatric cases are rare, and to the best of our knowledge, we report the youngest patient with dermal non-neural granular cell tumors.

Keywords: dermatopathology; neoplasms-benign.
