Abstract (English): Granular cell tumors (GCT) are rare primary tumors of the breast that represent a diagnostic challenge due to their ability to mimic breast carcinoma. We report the case of a 63-year-old woman who presented for screening mammography (MG) and ultrasound (US) identifying an irregular, spiculated nodule, BI-RADS 4C; core needle biopsy was performed, with histopathologic (HP) and immunohistochemical (IHC) report of breast GCT.

Abstract (Spanish): Los tumores de células granulares (TCGs) son neoplasias primarias raras de la mama que representan un reto diagnóstico debido a su capacidad para mimetizar un carcinoma de mama. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 63 años que acudió a una mamografía (MG) y ultrasonido (US) de escrutinio, identificando un nódulo irregular y espiculado, BI-RADS 4C; se realizó una biopsia con aguja gruesa con informe histopatológico (HP) e inmunohistoquímico (IHQ) de TCGs de mama.
