  • Title: [Multiple glomangiomas].
    Author: Brandão FM, E Silva LG, De Oliveira A.
    Journal: Med Cutan Ibero Lat Am; 1976; 4(2):77-82. PubMed ID: 185474.
    Abstract:
    A case of multiple glomangioma in a 25 year old male patient is reported. The lesions started in an eruptive way affecting the upper limbs and trunk. Most of the forty lesions were painless but the larger ones were painful on pressure. Pain was not elicited by cold nor increased venous pressure. The histopathological examination of three lesions revealed a noncapsulated, angiomatous type of glomus tumor with a small number of glomus cells. Sweat glands are often imprisoned by the tumor in the deep dermis. The classification of glomangioma in solitary, multiple regional and disseminated types is discussed and their clinicopathological features are reviewed. The relationships and differential diagnosis with blue-rubber-bleb-naevus and post-traumatic angiomatosis are discussed.
