Granular cell tumor in a child's finger

M F Price et al. Ann Plast Surg. 2000 Apr.

Abstract

Granular cell tumor is an uncommon tumor found in the hand. It is probably of Schwann cell origin and may be associated with a peripheral nerve. Although it is often described as a painless tumor of the oral cavity and skin, its presentation in the fingers or hand is often painful--a characteristic not well recognized.
