  • Title: Intraoral solitary glomus tumor (glomangioma): case report and literature review.
    Author: Ficarra G, Merrell PW, Johnston WH, Hansen LS.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol; 1986 Sep; 62(3):306-11. PubMed ID: 3018652.
    Abstract:
    The glomus tumor, or glomangioma, is a benign neoplasm arising from the normal glomus. Glomus tumors of the oral cavity are rare, with only ten cases reported in the literature. We report the light and electron microscopic features of an additional case of glomus tumor of the lip which occurred as a solitary, painless, submucosal mass in a 51-year-old woman. Clinical, diagnostic, and histogenetic aspects are discussed.
