Aspirate from an abdominal lump in a known case of breast carcinoma
First published: 07 May 2018
Abstract
In this report we describe the means of diagnosing an incidental abdominal wall lump in an otherwise asymptomatic patient who had a history of previously treated breast carcinoma. FNAC and excision showed the lesion to be a granular cell tumor. Granular cell tumors are quite rare in subcutaneous tissue. FNAC is easily available, widely acceptable and minimally invasive and it can readily be used to screen and characterize such lesions.
