    Abstract:
    In this review, the importance of correct diagnosis of glomuvenous malformations (GVM) is emphasised, and different treatment modalities are discussed. GVM are simple venous malformations located in the skin and subcutis, and GVM has a characteristic blue to reddish cobblestone-like appearance with not fully compressible elements, which can be associated with pain on palpation. Clinically, GVM differ from blue rubber bleb naevus syndrome and common/familial cutaneo-mucosal venous malforma-tions in appearance, compressibility and in having a normal D-dimer concentration.
