Abstract:
A glomus tumor or glomangioma is a benign neoplasm originating from the modified smooth muscle cells of the vascular glomus Glomangiomas of the head and/or neck are extremely rare, with an incidence of 0.6%. We present an observational case report of a recurrent glomic tumor originally located in the mobile tongue, with an aggressive clinical course that complicated the therapeutic options of the case.
