“…Although these tumors are usually found in the deep dermis of the subungual regions, they can occur in deep soft tissue or visceral organs, including stomach, esophagus, bronchi, mediastinum, and genitourinary regions (2-5), despite these internal organs usually do not have glomus bodies. Most glomus tumors are benign, but some cases with malignant/uncertain malignant potential have been documented (6). Furthermore, a form of glomus tumor that shows striking nuclear atypia without any other malignant features has been designated as symplastic glomus tumor (7).…”

Symplastic glomus tumor of the urinary bladder treated by robot-assisted partial cystectomy: a case report and literature review

Glomus tumors arising in the urinary bladder are extremely rare, and only two cases have been reported in the English Literature. We present a case of a 58-year-old man with an asymptomatic mass of the anterior wall of the bladder that measured 2.5 × 2.5 cm. Endoscopic excision was performed, and the tumor was diagnosed as symplastic glomus tumor. The patient finally underwent robotic-assisted partial cystectomy, and he remains healthy without any recurrence to date. After reviewing this case and previous reports, we analyzed the clinicopathologic features and treatment options for this rare neoplasm.

Glomus tumor is a rather common tumor of the hand, which presents with a classic triad of symptoms of high temperature, sensitivity and pain, and localized tenderness. Most glomus tumors are located in the digits, especially in subungueal areas. However, extradigital tumors are less frequent, and little is known about their clinical and histopathological features. Two cases of extradigital symplastic glomus tumor are presented. An active clinical and pathological awareness to avoid misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis of this uncommon lesion is highlighted.
