  • Title: Glomus tumour of the colon: dynamic contrast-enhanced CT findings and review of the literature.
    Author: Tan TJ, Hayes MM, Radigan JP, Munk PL.
    Journal: Clin Imaging; 2015; 39(4):714-6. PubMed ID: 25770905.
    Abstract:
    We describe the peculiar enhancement pattern of a subepithelial colonic glomus tumour on dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography. Discontinuous, peripheral nodular enhancement of the colonic lesion followed by subsequent centripetal filling-in of contrast was reminiscent of a hepatic haemangioma, which has not been described with a glomus or any other subepithelial tumour of the colon. When encountered, this tumour enhancement pattern raises the possibility of a colonic glomus tumour prior to histological confirmation.
