Overview
The predominant therapy for solitary glomus tumor is surgical resection.[1] Patients with multiple glomus tumors are treated with sclerotherapy or laser therapy.[2][3][4]
Medical Therapy
- The predominant therapy for solitary glomus tumor is surgical resection.[1]
- Multiple glomus tumors are numerous and poorly circumscribed, which makes surgical excision difficult. Multiple glomus tumors are treated with sclerotherapy or laser therapy.[2][3][4]
