Abstract
Background: Nail glomus tumor is a well-known tumor, with well-defined clinical characteristics and surgical treatment; however, some of these lesions occur in different locations and sizes with difficult surgical resolution. Summary: Clinical and imaging tests help in the diagnosis and tumor localization. Key Message: Adequate surgical knowledge for these cases ensures lower rates of recurrence and nail dystrophy.
