We describe the case of a 55 year old female who presented with a mass in her right breast. Mammography confirmed a 2 × 2 cm lump, suspicious of malignancy. The lesion was widely resected. Histological examination revealed this to be a benign granular cell tumour.Granular cell tumour is a rare tumour that very occasionally presents within the breast. It is possibly of Schwann cell origin. Clinical features and subsequent investigations may be suggestive of breast malignancy. Tumour cells showing positive immunostaining for S-100 and PAS is in keeping with the diagnosis. Wide local resection is the gold standard treatment.

1050 Background: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and second leading cause of death due to cancer in women in the United States. We aimed to determine site specific incidence of SPMs in post-menopausal women with primary BC using data from the US Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER-17) cancer registries. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed post-menopausal women aged 45 or older with a first primary breast cancer diagnosis between 2000 and 2019, excluding those aged 45 or younger or with non-breast cancers as their first malignancy. We defined SPMs as second malignancies occurring at least 6 months after the initial breast cancer diagnosis and calculated standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) and absolute excess risk (AER) using SEER*Stat. Statistical significance was determined using p-values <0.05 and a 95% CI assuming a Poisson distribution of SPM incidence. Results: Among 774,965 post-menopausal women ≥45 years old with primary breast cancer, 10.8% developed SPMs, with significantly increased risk compared to the general population (SIR=1.14, 95% CI=1.13-1.15, p<0.05), particularly for solid tumors (SIR=1.16, 95% CI=1.15-1.16, p<0.05) and certain malignancies including salivary gland (SIR=1.77), thyroid (SIR=1.56), endocrine system (SIR=1.56), and hematological malignancies such as ALL, ANLL, and AML (SIR>1.70). Women aged 45-59 and Black women had the highest risk for all malignancies. PR receptor-positive women had higher risk for thyroid SPMs, while PR-negative women had higher risk for SPMs in female genitalia, bones and joints, and hematological malignancies. HER-positive and triple-positive (HER ER PR) women had higher risk for thyroid and hematological SPMs, while triple-negative women had higher risk for ALL, ANLL, and AML. Conclusions: This study found that 11% of post-menopausal women with primary BC develop SPMs, with thyroid cancer being the most common. Black and older women (45-59 years) had a higher risk of developing SPMs. [Table: see text]

We conclude that due to different socio-cultural and sexual practices, this cancer is highly uncommon in Kashmir and screening or possibly should be directed specifically at only high risk selective subjects.
