À propos de ce contenu audio
In this episode of the Hand Surgery Resource Podcast, Dr. Larry Hurst shares more about Glomus Tumor.
Glomus tumors are rare, benign papules or nodules that appear predominantly at subungual sites in the distal extremities especially in middle aged women. Glomus tumors are very painful, often causing paroxysmal responses to changes in temperature or pressure. The pain is secondary to glomus body contractions. Most tumors occur as solitary lesions; however, multiple tumors, even on one fingertip have been reported. It is important to keep Carroll's triad described in 1972 in mind when attempting to diagnose glomus tumors. There are three types of glomus tumors: mucoid hyaline, solid (glomus) and angiomatous. Usually glomus tumors are smaller than 1 cm in diameter with most about 5mm in diameter.
