A retroperitoneal granular cell tumour that mimics pancreatic cancer.
Granular cell tumour is a rare disorder that is characterised by an oval-shaped tumour that has with eosinophilic granules within the tumour cells. It is extremely rare to find this disease arising from the retroperitoneum. We report here on a case of a 46-year-old man with a retroperitoneal granular cell tumour that mimics pancreatic cancer, and describe the CT and MRI findings.
