  • Title: Intraosseous glomus tumor treated by toe-to-finger transfer: case report.
    Author: Lau YY, Ho PC, Tse WL, Chow LT, Hung LK.
    Journal: J Hand Surg Am; 2009 Apr; 34(4):710-4. PubMed ID: 19345875.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of intraosseous glomus tumor that developed in the right ring finger distal phalanx of a 19-year-old man. Clinical and radiographic findings were atypical. The tumor was excised en bloc because of the extensive involvement. The left second toe was transferred to the right ring finger to reconstruct the excised finger part. Symptom relief, function, and cosmetic outcome were satisfactory during 2-year follow-up.
