Abstract:
Glomus tumors are benign neoplasms that originate from neuromyoarterial glomus bodies, Most glomus tumors present in the subungual area of digits. Extradigital glomus tumors are a very rare entity. There is a lack of sufficient documentation concerning extradigital glomus tumors which results in their late diagnosis and treatment. We report the case of a knee glomus tumor, its subsequent diagnosis and surgical treatment.
