Abstract: FUNDAMENTOS: O tumor glômico subungueal é neoplasia benigna de células glômicas. É mais freqüentemente observado como lesão solitária na falange distal dos quirodáctilos, representando de um a 4,5% das neoplasias das mãos. OBJETIVO: Avaliar os aspectos epidemiológicos e clínicos, os exames complementares, bem como prognóstico e tratamento com base em exames histopatológicos e métodos de imagem.

Glomus tumors are rare benign lesions (2,3) , first described by Wood in 1812 (3,4) , characterized by hamartomatous proliferation originated in the neuromyoarterial glomus bodies (2) . This type of tumor, also denominated glomangioma, represents approximately 2% of all the primary soft tissue tumors (5,6) and 1% to 4.5% of hand neoplasms (3,5) .…”
