Multiple glomus tumors (MGT) are rare, with a case presenting unusually on the right leg. Recurrence and multiplicity should be considered in glomus tumor cases with repeat symptoms post-surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Neoplasms
  • Dermatopathology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Multiple glomus tumors (MGT) represent a rare neoplastic condition.
  • Glomus tumors typically arise from the glomus body, involved in thermoregulation.
  • Understanding MGT presentation is crucial for diagnosis and management.

Observation:

  • A unique case of localized MGT in a 37-year-old male on the right lower leg.
  • The tumor exhibited an unusual location, sequential development, and distribution along the lateral sural cutaneous nerve.
  • Pathological findings were characteristic of glomus tumor.

Findings:

  • The presented case highlights an atypical MGT manifestation.
  • The tumor's location and nerve association provide unique diagnostic insights.

  • Pathology confirmed the glomus tumor diagnosis.

    • Implications:

    • Recurrence and multiplicity of glomus tumors must be suspected in patients with post-excision symptoms.
    • This case expands the understanding of MGT's clinical and anatomical variations.
    • Consideration of nerve involvement in MGT may guide surgical approaches and prognosis.
