AR-SA Granular cell schwanomma is a rare benign tumor
that has been reported sporadically. Our case was a 38 year old man with a pink
to yellow small lump of 5mm in right buccal mucosa without any complaint of
pain or hemorrhage. Microscopic evaluations showed malpighian epithelium with
intense hyperplasia in some parts. In underlying connective tissue a new formed
tissue is seen with cytoplasmic giant cells. Any malignancy was reported. In
this article, clinical and microscopic characteristics as well as misdiagnosis
of the disease are discussed.
