Abstract

Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a benign neoplasm that frequently occurs in the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and oral cavity, although these tumors occur throughout the body. GCT of the bladder is an extremely rare disease, and only 10 cases have been reported. We report the use of ultrasonography and MRI for a case of GCT of the bladder; this lesion was pathologically confirmed.
