    Granular cell tumors (GCTs) are rare and approximately half of the all lesions arise from head and neck, especially from the tongue. However, they are rarely seen in the vulva. They can occur in patients of any age, but peak age incidence is in the fourth to sixth decades. They generally occur as small, slow growing, and skin-colored nodule. GCTs are usually benign, but malignant cases were reported. Recurrence can be seen in benign tumors with clear margins, but rates increase with positive margins. The treatment is complete surgical excision. We report a case of benign GCT of the vulva. A 41-year-old patient presented with vulvar mass, and biopsy was consisted with GCT.

    Carcinoid tumor arising in a mature cystic teratoma: A case report
    (2015-05-01) Tosuner, ZEYNEP; Sonmez, FATMA CAVİDE; Arici, DİLEK SEMA; Dansuk, RAMAZAN; TOSUNER, ZEYNEP; SÖNMEZ, FATMA CAVİDE; ARICI, DILEK SEMA; DANSUK, RAMAZAN
    Mature cystic teratomas are common benign tumors of the ovary. The most common form of malig‑ nant transformation is squamous cell carcinoma, however, malignant transformation is rarely observed and cases are usually asymptomatic. Carcinoid tumors are rare tumors of the neuroendocrine system. A number of the carcinoids result in clinical syndromes due to the secretion of vasoac‑ tive substances produced by the tumor. A 75‑year‑old woman suffering from groin pain was admitted to the Faculty of Medi‑ cine at Bezmialem Vakıf University (Istanbul, Turkey). An adnexal mass was detected during the physical examination. Magnetic resonance imaging scans exhibited an 8x7‑cm mass in the right ovary. Surgical excision of the mass was performed and histopathological examination revealed a mature cystic teratoma with three germ layers. An area consisting of nests and trabeculae was evident in the cyst wall. The pathological diagnosis was of an insular and trabecular variant of carcinoid tumor arising in a mature cystic teratoma. The patient did not present with carcinoid syndrome, and no recurrence was observed after 11 months of follow‑up examinations
