{Abstract}: Granular cell tumors (GCTs) are rare, indolent neoplasms classically characterized by eosinophilic granular cytoplasm, infiltrations of polygonal cells in the collagenous stroma, and pustulo-ovoid bodies of Milian. We describe a case of a 10-year-old female presenting with a GCT of the upper arm, remarkable for positive Melan-A expression without additional melanocytic features. The differentiation between granular cells versus melanocytic neoplasms carries significant implications for clinical management, and such diagnoses should be considered carefully in the setting of unusual immunophenotypes.
