Glomus tumors are neoplasms arising from the glomus body, which regulate skin temperature. They mostly benign and present in subungual area of a distal phalanx. However, they can occur extradigital location, may not be typical intradigital tumors. This makes it difficult to diagnose We report volar tumor mimicking painful ganglion with literature review.

We report a case of a 51-year-old man who was diagnosed with systemic reactive (AA) amyloidosis in association with untreated glomus jugulare and glomus caroticum tumors. He refused radiotherapy and renal replacement therapy. Paragangliomas, although rare, should be considered one of the tumors that can result in AA amyloidosis.

Glomus tumors are uncommon benign perivascular neoplasms that have rarely been described outside of their usual peripheral soft tissue sites. We report a unique case of glomus tumor of the renal pelvis in a 53-year-old woman who presented with microscopic hematuria associated with obstruction of the ureteropelvic junction and marked hydronephrosis. At initial gross examination, the tumor mimick...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Gastric glomus tumors are extremely rare, and presurgical confirmation is often impossible. The identification of clinical and radiologic characteristics of this tumor type is important for preoperative diagnosis and treatment planning. METHODS In this study, we analyzed 10 cases of gastric glomus tumors resected at a single institute over 9 years. RESULTS Eight of the patie...

Background. Glomus Tympanicum is the commonest middle ear neoplasm. Total removal through conservative middle-ear surgery is the gold standard of treatment. Variable surgical techniques have been reported with modifications. Hypothesis. Using endoscopes improves diagnosis and surgical removal of glomus tympanicum. Study design. Prospective case series. Methods. Examination of ears with suspecte...

INTRODUCTION Glomus body is an apparatus present in the skin at the arterio-venous junction whose main function is to control the body temperature. Hyperplasia of the glomus body results in an entity called glomus tumor. Masson described this entity first in 1924, as a tumor of the neuromyoarterial body. Due to its symptoms, it is of ten misdiagnosed and wrongly treated which adds burden to the...
