Glomus tumours of the hand.
Based on 8 cases of glomus tumour of the hand, observed over the last 3 years, the authors review the clinical features and pathological anatomy of this rare condition. They propose nuclear magnetic resonance as a preoperative instrumental study as an alternative to angiography because it is non-invasive, free from risk and is clinically very effective.
