Abstract
Multiple cutaneous granular cell tumors are uncommon among children. We describe a 13-year-old boy with Hodgkin's disease in remission for 3 years who had multiple cutaneous granular cell tumors. We wondered whether this association was real or a coincidence and whether this child was at increased risk of development of malignant granular cell tumors.
