Background
Granular cell tumors (GCTs) are usually benign and occur primarily in the trunk and head. Vaginal tumors are rare, particularly in children.
Case
A 9-year-old girl was admitted with irregular vaginal bleeding for 1 year. The bleeding had worsened in the previous 1 month. B-ultrasound and computed tomography showed a round mass in the vagina. We performed vaginoscopy using a hysteroscopic exploration and tumor resection via an open technique. The pathology of the resected tumor confirmed a vaginal wall GCT. No recurrence was noted in the following 16 months.
Summary and Conclusion
To our knowledge, our prepubescent girl is the youngest patient with GCT in the literature. Histopathological evaluation and complete tumor resection with clear margins is the primary treatment for benign or malignant GCTs.

罕见的小儿阴道颗粒细胞瘤:一例报告。
背景
颗粒细胞瘤(GCT)通常是良性的,主要发生在躯干和头部。阴道肿瘤很少见,尤其是在儿童中。
案件
一名9岁女孩因阴道不规则出血入院1年。在过去的1个月中,出血加剧了。B超检查和计算机断层扫描显示阴道内有圆形肿块。我们使用宫腔镜探查术通过开放技术进行阴道镜检查和肿瘤切除。切除的肿瘤的病理证实了阴道壁GCT。在接下来的16个月中没有发现复发。
总结与结论
据我们所知,青春期前的女孩是文献中最年轻的GCT患者。对良性或恶性GCT的主要治疗方法是组织病理学评估和完整的肿瘤切除(切缘清楚)。
