Granular cell tumor (GCT) of the biliary system is rare. It is reported that it occurs more commonly in young black women. We report here our seldom experience of a Japanese case in whom icterus was found as a first symptom just after a caesarean operation. A 36-year-old Japanese woman developed icterus after delivery by the Caesarean operation. A surgical operation was performed without can deny that there was a tumor-related change in a bile duct as a result of examination for various images. As a result of pathological evaluation, GCT was diagnosed. By the preoperative organization biomicroscopy result, it was not able to be attachd a right diagnosis. It was thought that this tumor, although rare, should be considered as one of the causes of biliary stenosis in the younger population.
胆道系统的颗粒细胞瘤(GCT)较为罕见。据报道,它在年轻的黑人女性中更为常见。我们在此报告一例日本病例,该患者在剖宫产术后不久即出现黄疸,这是其首发症状。一位 36 岁的日本女性在剖宫产分娩后出现黄疸。进行了手术,由于各种影像学检查,不能排除胆管内存在与肿瘤相关的改变。病理评估诊断为 GCT。由于术前组织学显微镜检查结果,无法明确诊断。考虑到这种肿瘤虽然罕见,但应将其视为年轻人群中胆管狭窄的原因之一。
