  • Beschreibung: <jats:p>Glomus tumors are neoplasms arising from the glomus body, which regulate skin temperature. They are mostly benign tumors and present in the subungual area of a distal phalanx. However, they can occur in extradigital location, and they may not be typical of intradigital glomus tumors. This makes it difficult to diagnose extradigital glomus tumors. We report a volar extradigital tumor mimicking a painful ganglion with a literature review. </jats:p>
