Zusammenfassung: | Granular cell tumor is rare and is thought to originate from neurogenic cells. The tumor rarely occurs in the colon and its occurrence in the appendix is extremely rare. We report a case of granular cell tumor developed in the appendix for the first time in Korea. The tumor was discovered incidentally during colonoscopy and removed by using an endoscopic polypectomy. The expression of S-100 protein and lack of desmin represent that the tumor is relatd with Schwann cell originally. (Kor J Gastroenterol 2000;36:404 - 407) |
