Abstract

Granular cell tumors are rare neoplastic skin and soft tissue lesions: only 1-2% are malignant. Five to sixteen percent occur in the vulva. We present our experience with granular cell tumors of the vulva in six patients, all of whom had wide local excisions and were followed-up in our outpatient clinic for 3-171 months. One died of an unrelated cause. None of the others has evidence of the disease.
