Internal Medicine Department, College of Medicine, King Faisal University, Saudi Arabia
Abstract
Background: Granular cell tumors (GCTs) are benign soft tissue tumors that are thought to originate from Schwann cells. They are relatively rare, and presentation in the gastrointestinal tract is even more uncommon. Case report: In this paper, we present a 26-year-old female patient who was incidentally diagnosed with an esophageal GCT. The tumor was initially detected by endoscopy, evaluated by endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), then resected using an endoscopic mucosal resection technique
