Popis: A glomus tumor is a rare benign neoplasia; which involves a thermoregulatory microvascular system, the glomus body. It is often found in the subungual tissue. Eccrine angiomatous Hamartoma (EAH) is a rare proliferation of vascular and eccrine structures. We present an original case by its location, clinical examination (pain is the main symptom with onycholysis) and its misleading appearance on MRI. The treatment consists of surgical excision of the tumor with good evolution. We will insist on the histological exam of the piece, which is the key to the diagnosis.
