Abstract:

Soft tissue tumors are known to occur by varied presentations with atypical features, especially with regard to vascular tumors. The glomus tumour is an unusual benign neoplasm arising from smooth muscles of the perivascular glomus bodies. While it is known to occur in the extremities, this tumour has a predilection for the sub-ungal region of fingers. Vascular tumors as such, especially glomus tumors presenting in extra digital sites are extremely rare. In literature only five cases are available on extra digital sites and few cases have been reported to involve the gastrointestinal tract, ai

Glomus tumors are mesenchymal neoplasms derived from glomus bodies with rare presentations in the oral cavity. Glomus tumors present as a purple or pink vascular nodule or papule, sized <1 cm, and imitate vascular neoplasms such as hemangiopericytoma or hemangioma. Glomus tumors represent less than 2% of all benign soft tissue tumors. Only 27 cases of benign glomus tumors with oral cavity involvement have been reported to date. The most-reported oral tumors involved the lips (54.2%), followed by hard palate, gingiva, tongue, and buccal mucosa. The mean age of presentation of the labial glom

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Glomus tumors are rare neoplasms accounting for less than 2% of all soft tissue tumors but multiple lesions may be seen in up to 10% of the patients. Solitary glomus tumor (GT) most frequently appears as small nodule in specific locations such as subungual region or deep dermis. However, rarely these entities have been observed in extracutaneous locations such as the gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, respiratory tracts, and other visceral organs. A small fraction of the GTs may present as tumors of uncertain malignant potential or as malignant glomus tumors. CASE PRESENTATION

Abstract:

Background: Glomus tumors are rare benign tumors that were first described in 1812 by Wood. They arise from normal glomus apparatus, usually located in the reticular dermis of the body. Although glomus tumors are universal in occurrence, the sub-Saharan Africa experience has not been well documented. Methods: The authors performed a systematic literature review of eligible studies between 1960 and August 2023, using the terms “glomus,” “tumor,” “glomangioma,” “glomangiomyoma,” and “Africa.” We also performed a search of the AIC Kijabe Hospital pathology department database of about 140,000 rec

Glomus tumours are very rare, small, painful benign hamartomas, arising from the arterial end of the glomus body. Glomus tumors account for 1-2% of the soft tissue tumors in the hand. The exact etiopathogenesis is unknown. It is incapacitating to the patients because of chronicity of symptoms and lack of proper investigative tools to diagnose the tumor at an early stage. The clinical diagnosis was made on the basis of medical history and MRI findings.

Abstract:

Glomus tumors are benign neoplasms that arise from neuromyoarterial glomus bodies. They represent around 1–5% of all soft-tissue tumors. High temperature, sensitivity, and pain and localized tenderness are the classical triad of symptoms. Most glomus tumors represent in the subungual area of digits. Extradigital glomus tumors are a very rare entity. There are rare cases of these tumors reported to be in shoulder, elbow, knee, wrist, even stomach, colon, and larynx. We are reporting a case of a glomus tumor on thigh and discuss the histological and immunohistochemical features.

Abstract:

Abstract OBJECTIVE: Glomus jugulare tumors are generally considered slow-growing, benign lesions. However, their pronounced local aggressiveness frequently results in severe neurological deficits. Surgical removal is rarely radical and is usually associated with morbidity. There is increasing evidence that stereotactic radiosurgery, particularly gamma knife radiosurgery (GKR), may play a relevant role as a therapeutic option in these tumors. METHODS: Between 1996 and 2005, we used GKR to treat 20 patients bearing growing glomus jugulare tumors, mostly classified as Glasscock-Jackson Grade IV o

Abstract:

Eighteen patients with glomus vagale tumors treated by surgical resection are reviewed. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are diagnostic. Arteriography is used to determine multicentric tumors. The incidence of multicentric tumors in this series was 40%. Adequate surgical exposure is necessary for removal of the tumor without injury to the carotid artery. Vagal paralysis was present in all cases postoperatively and resulted in dysphagia and aspiration. Cricopharyngeal myotomy and Teflon injection aided in rehabilitation of deglutition.

Abstract:

Abstract OBJECTIVE Glomus tumors are rare lesions that can arise intraosseously along the entire spinal axis. Only four cases have been reported, usually manifesting with severe back pain and involving the midthoracic spine or sacrum. The current report describes the largest such lesion reported in the literature to date and summarizes the clinical and pathological characteristics of these rare tumors. METHODS A single, recent case arising from the lumbar vertebra of L3 is described, and the literature of intraosseous spinal glomus tumors is reviewed. RESULTS The lesion described arose in a 44

Abstract:

Glomus tumors are caused by hyperplasia of the glomus body. Extra-digital glomus tumors are occasionally challenging to identify. We report a case of a patient who was misdiagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome and eventually after surgical excision it was found to be a Glomus tumor. Tumors must therefore be considered in the differential diagnosis of individuals with extra digital lesions that present at the wrist with stabbing pain, hypersensitivity, paroxysmal pain, and MRI findings of subcutaneous low T1 high T2 signal cystic lesion.

Abstract:

Introduction: Presentations of glomus tumors in atypical areas have been documented and often lack the classic symptoms typically associated with glomus tumors. Diagnosis of extradigital glomus tumors is difficult and often comes after years of misdiagnosis. Case Report: We present the case of an 82-year-old male with an extradigital glomus tumor at the tip of the olecranon. Gold standard magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was negative and 3-phase nuclear medicine scan identified uptake near the olecranon process. Glomus tumor diagnosis was confirmed after pathology results. At two weeks post-op

Abstract:

Abstract Glomus tumor is a benign mesenchymal neoplasm comprising less than 2% of soft tissue tumors. It is composed of cells resembling modified smooth muscle cells of the normal glomus body. The glomus body, a thermoregulator, is a specialized form of arteriovenous anastomosis localized in dermal and precoccygeal soft tissue. Although glomus tumors are rare neoplasms, clinical misdiagnosis of many of these lesions as hemangiomas or venous malformations makes an accurate assessment of their actual prevalence difficult. A malignant counterpart of this lesion exists but is extremely rare.

Abstract:

Glomus tumors are rare neoplasms that typically occur within the dermis or subcutis of the subungual space. Primary glomus tumors of the thorax are exceedingly uncommon, thus standard-of-care management is lacking. In this report we describe the management of a patient presenting with a symptomatic glomus tumor of the posterior trachea, and provide a comprehensive review including all documented tracheal glomus tumor reports.

Abstract:

Background: Intravenous glomus tumors are extremely rare. Methods: We report a patient with an intravenous glomus tumor within a venous aneurysm misdiagnosed as a neuroma of the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve, based on clinical exam, electrodiagnostic studies, and findings on a magnetic resonance imaging neurogram. Results: After surgical resection, the patient’s symptoms, including pain and localized hypersensitivity, totally resolved. Conclusions: This case illustrates 2 important points. First, unlike extradigital glomus tumors, magnetic resonance imaging is not reliable in diagnosing
