In microscopic observations, granular cell tumors do not have a defined boundary with surrounding tissues, and they display an infiltrating pattern that can expand to adjacent tissue. As a result, the tumor should be removed with a sufficient margin, including the normal tissues surrounding it. The authors experienced granular cell tumor in the muscle layer of the head and neck. It could be treated without recurrence through extensive surgical resection and local flap.
