Feb 15th, 2021 - Glomus tumors are benign neurovascular neoplasms, most commonly located in the subungual region. These subcutaneous nodules are characterized by intense pain and temperature sensitivity. Although surgical excision is the curative treatment, perman...

Jan 13th, 2021 - Glomus tumors are soft tissue neoplasms comprised of glomus cells, vasculature, and smooth muscle cells, which occur commonly in a single subungual area of the digits, and their main clinical features include severe paroxysmal pain, localized tend...

Dec 20th, 2020 - We describe a 43-year-old woman with a 23-year history of recurrent extradigital glomus tumors (glomangiomatosis) of the hand and forearm. She presented with a typical presentation of pain, tenderness to palpation, and hypersensitivity of the affe...

Dec 17th, 2020 - Subungual glomus tumor is a relatively uncommon entity with varied clinical presentations which may lead to diagnostic delays. Onychoscopy can be used as an evaluation tool in routine evaluation of glomus tumors. With an aim to characterize the on...

Dec 10th, 2020 - Glomus tumors are rare and benign vascular soft-tissue masses commonly found subungually in the foot. A glomus tumor typically manifests with a classic triad of pain, point tenderness, and cold sensitivity. This case report describes an atypical p...

Nov 19th, 2014 - Discussion Glomus tumors are an established cause of pain in the subungual areas of the hand; numerous cases have been reported. 1,5,10,14 However, extradigital glomus tumors, particularly those involving the wrist, are rare, and only a few have be.

Sep 5th, 2014 - Distinction between malignant GTs and GTUMPs in the presence of unusual histologic features may be difficult. 12 Glomus tumors that do not fulfill criteria for malignancy but have at least 1 atypical feature other than nuclear pleomorphism should b.

Glomus tumors are rare benign mesenchymal neoplasms that account for less than 2% of soft tissue tumors. These neoplasms typically are small nodules less than 1 cm in diameter, associated with pain that is exacerbated by tactile stimulation and co.
