Abstract

Glomus tumors are rare, benign perivascular hamartomas arising from glomus cells occurring most frequently at the finger tips but can also occur anywhere else in the body. The tumor occasionally shows triad of symptoms of pain, cold sensitivity and pain following minor trauma. Diagnosis is confirmed by histology and complete surgical excision is necessary to prevent recurrence.
