This case report details an 11-year-old girl with numerous skin granular cell tumors and multiple systemic defects, suggesting a rare syndromic entity. Further research is needed to understand this rare association.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Genetics
  • Pediatrics

Background:

  • Cutaneous granular cell tumors are rarely associated with systemic defects.
  • Previous reports include various anomalies like lentiginosis, craniofacial and cardiac defects, and neurological issues.
  • Visceral granular cell tumors are not observed in these patients.
