Granular cell tumor (GCT) in the duodenum is an extremely rare disease: only one case has been listed in a review, to date. We reported a 47-yr-old Japanese male case with GCT of the duodenum. Clinically, melena caused by bleeding from the tumor was the only symptom. The tumor cells showed abundant, granular eosinophilic cytoplasm. Although this tumor was clinically and histologically benign, highly developed tumor microvessels were demonstrated both angiographically and histologically, suggesting malignant potential of the tumor.
