Abstract
Glomus tumors are rare benign tumors. The most frequent locations are in the hand and fingers. Extradigital locations are reported in the form of clinical cases. Diagnostic orientation in the face of the clinical triad of pain, area of skin retraction, cold hypersensitivity, and the appearance on MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) should lead to surgical excision and histological confirmation. Surgical treatment by excision alone leads to the disappearance of clinical symptoms and thus prevents progression to chronicity.
