title: Multiple infiltrating glomus tumors in children.
abstract: Two children with  multiple infiltrating glomus tumors of the lower extremities presented in infancy with clinical and, in one, radiological, signs of varicose veins. Surgical therapy was followed by multiple recurrences, a phenomenon attributable to the infiltrative properties of the tumor. This variant of multiple glomus tumor may be congenital and is probably hamartomatous in nature.
