Glomus tumour in a child.
Glomus tumours are uncommon neoplasms. Very rarely do they present in the paediatric age group. We describe a case of bilateral glomus tumours in a 13-year-old girl that were successfully treated with radiotherapy. The patient remains well 8 years after completion of treatment.
