A giant granular cell tumor of the tongue in a pediatric case.

Granular cell tumor (GCT) is an infrequent and usually benign neoplasm which is found predominantly in the head and neck region. More than half of the head and neck GCTs originate from the tongue. It is most frequently seen in the fourth to sixth decades of life. We presented an interesting case of a giant GCT in a 2.5-year-old patient. It was located under the anterior tongue, filled the floor of the mouth and was resected by the transoral route.
