Abstract EN
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.
