“…Vascular malformations do not have the perivascular glomus cell accumulations seen in glomangioma, Myopericytoma, angioleiomyoma, and myofibroma. All have variable degrees of perivascular muscle cells, but these cells do not have the classic cuboidal glomus cells aspect [ 28 , 29 ]. These tumors usually show a degree of desmin positivity in the perivascular cells, which is not seen in glomangioma.…”

This is a case report of a 5.6 cm glomangioma supplied by the femoral profunda artery in a 66-year-old male patient with severe peripheral artery disease. The patient complained of discomfort and mild pain at the place of the lesion and an accelerated growth rate in the last two months. A nodular mass located laterally on the left foot, elastic, covered with a thin skin, and mobile, was noted on the clinical exam. Doppler exam demonstrated an active vascular supply. CT angiography showed a femoral profunda artery blood supply and a severe asymptomatic bilateral peripheral artery disease (PAD). The lesion was removed entirely by surgery. A microscopy exam revealed a glomangioma. After surgery, the patient recovered unevenly. However, the patient experienced wound-healing issues that resolved after four weeks of surgery. Although the patient’s PAD was severe, the lesion presented with a burst in dimensions weeks before surgery.
