Rare Hybrid Perineurioma and Granular Cell Tumor: A Pediatric Case.
Pediatr Dev Pathol
September 2024
Article Synopsis
- A 13-year-old patient had a unique tumor on their lower lip, initially thought to be a mucocele due to a long-standing lip mass.
- The surgical removal and subsequent histopathological analysis identified a tumor with both granular cell and perineurial characteristics, which were confirmed by specific protein staining.
- This case marks the first report of a perineurial-granular cell hybrid tumor in a patient under 18 and in an unusual location within the head and neck, highlighting the need to recognize various clinical forms in rare pediatric tumors.
Unlabelled: Existing literature has demonstrated the significant relationship between race and kidney transplant outcomes; however, there are conflicting and limited data on the influence of donor race or donor-recipient race-matching on pediatric kidney transplant outcomes.
Methods: Analysis included kidney-only transplant recipients between ages 2 and 17 from 2000 to 2017 enrolled in the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network and their associated donors. Multivariable regression models were used to compare outcomes by donor race and donor-recipient race-matched status.
