Atypically localized glomus tumor causing anterior interosseous nerve syndrome: A case report
2017, Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica TurcicaCitation Excerpt :T1-weighted MR images show glomus tumors as dark, well-delineated lesions with low signal intensity and T2-weighted images show them as bright lesions with high signal intensity. Glomus tumors as small as 5 mm in the fingertip has been successfully shown with MRI.15 On the other hand, MRI can also help for identifying AINS.
An extremely rare case of a glomus tumor in the popliteal fossa
2016, Journal of OrthopaedicsUltrasound of wrist and hand masses
2015, Diagnostic and Interventional ImagingCitation Excerpt :It accounts for 1.2% of hand tumors and 65% of tumors in the subungual region and generally affects patients between 20 and 40 years old, with a female predominance. Clinically, the lesion presents as a superficial red-blue nodule, which is usually painful, particularly with changes in temperature or pressure [12–14]. On ultrasound it mostly presents as a small, rounded lesion located beneath the nail bed, with a generally hypoechogenic structure, occasionally almost identical or slightly more echogenic than the nail bed.
Characteristics of glomus tumors in the hand not diagnosed on magnetic resonance imaging
2015, Journal of Hand SurgerySubungual glomus tumor
2012, Journal of Hand SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Typical MRI angiographic findings are areas of strong enhancement during the arterial phase and tumor blush that increases in size in the delayed phase.13,16 Others have stated that MRI should be used for detection of multiple tumors.18–20 Although recurrences and metachronous multiple lesions can occur and multiple simultaneous glomus tumors are common, it might be hard to justify routine MRI use on this account alone for every case.8
