Glomangiomas are most frequently situated on fingers and toes, especially in the vicinity of the ungual plate. The authors report five cases of glomangiomas of atypical location/in the knee joint, in the vicinity of femoral and tibial epiphyses, and in the subcutaneous tissue on the forearm. The clinical findings are described, stressing the lack of parallelism between the intensity of symptoms and the size of the tumour which rarely exceeds the size of a millet grain. Complete removal of the tumour produces complete disappearance of pain and recurrences are not observed. |
