We have described a rare case of multifocal granular cell myoblastoma affecting respiratory and hepatobiliary tracts in a young woman. The patient had successful tracheal resection and biliary stent placement to alleviate symptoms. Long-term follow-up will clarify the true nature of the disease.

D016586	Granular Cell Tumor	Unusual tumor affecting any site of the body, but most often encountered in the head and neck. Considerable debate has surrounded the histogenesis of this neoplasm; however, it is considered to be a myoblastoma of, usually, a benign nature. It affects women more often than men. When it develops beneath the epidermis or mucous membrane, it can lead to proliferation of the squamous cells and mimic squamous cell carcinoma.

D016609	Neoplasms, Second Primary	Abnormal growths of tissue that follow a previous neoplasm but are not metastases of the latter. The second neoplasm may have the same or different histological type and can occur in the same or different organs as the previous neoplasm but in all cases arises from an independent oncogenic event. The development of the second neoplasm may or may not be related to the treatment for the previous neoplasm since genetic risk or predisposing factors may actually be the cause.
