Glomus tumor of the glans penis.
Glomus tumors of the penis are extremely rare. We report a patient with a solitary glomus tumor involving the penis. A 19-year-old man presented with a complaint of a recurrent painful penile mass. Resection of the lesion was performed. The pathologic diagnosis was glomus tumor of the glans penis. This case emphasizes the need for complete extirpation of the glomus tumor to avoid additional surgery.
