A 71-year-old man presented with a several year story of a slowly enlarging, painful mass of the knee. Surgical findings showed a subcutaneous, well-circumscribed mass fixed to the patella, and a wide resection was performed. Macroscopically, the tumour measured 6 x 5 x 5 cm and was well circumscribed. The tumour was characterised by superficial location, large size and focal marked atypia. In addition, areas of benign glomus tumour (GT) were identified. The findings appear to be consistent with the diagnosis of GT of uncertain malignant potential.
一名71岁男性患者，有膝关节处缓慢增大的疼痛性肿块数年病史。手术所见为一个皮下、边界清楚的肿块，与髌骨相连，遂行广泛切除。大体检查，肿瘤大小为6×5×5cm，边界清楚。该肿瘤的特点为位置表浅、体积大及局灶性显著异型性。此外，还发现了良性血管球瘤（GT）区域。这些发现似乎符合恶性潜能不确定的GT的诊断。
