| Popis: |
Glomus tumors are rare, benign neoplasms arising from components of the glomus apparatus. They are uncommon in the foot, often leading to misdiagnosis or a delay in diagnosis. This can have a significant impact on a patient’s quality of life and may result in incorrect surgical procedures being performed. Correct recognition leads to timeous diagnosis and marginal excision, which is curative. A glomus tumor should be considered in patients with no obvious cause for localized, severe foot pain. We report two different presentations of a glomus tumor in the foot. Level of Evidence V; Therapeutic Studies; Expert Opinion. |
