  • Title: Glomus tumor in a dog.
    Author: Shinya K, Uchida K, Nomura K, Ozaki K, Narama I, Umemura T.
    Journal: J Vet Med Sci; 1997 Oct; 59(10):949-50. PubMed ID: 9362049.
    Abstract:
    A mass of glomus tumor was found on the skin of the right foreleg of a ten-year old male mongrel dog. Histologically the mass contained some vasculatures and sheet-like proliferation of epithelioid tumor cells. Some blood vessels were rimmed by the tumor cells, which had a round to ovoid nucleus and plump eosinophilic cytoplasm. Immunohistochemically, smooth muscle actin and vimentin were demonstrated in the tumor cells. By electron microscopic examination, actin-like filaments with dense bodies were observed in the cytoplasm of the tumor cells. This is the first case report of a canine glomus tumor.
