Glomus tumour is a rare, benign, soft-tissue tumour. Eight patients with eight histologically confirmed glomus tumours have been operated within the past 10 years. The median age at the time of diagnosis was 40 years. The tumour was located in the fingertip in all cases. The evolution ranged from 1 to 7 years. Clinically, the paroxysmal pain was usually characterised. Imaging findings were helpful in diagnosis. In post-operative, there was an immediate pain relief. No recurrence was observed during the last follow-up period of 4 years and 10 months.
