Glomus tumor is a rare mesenchymal tumor composed of perivascular glomus bodies. The most common presentation area of these tumors is peripheral soft tissue, particularly in the distal part of extremities. They rarely can occur in the gastrointestinal tract and the most common location is the stomach. Preoperative diagnosis of this tumor can be difficult because of rarity and overlapping features with other mesenchymal lesions with regard to clinical and pathological findings. Therefore, to exclude differential diagnosis and make a definitive diagnosis is possible only with histopathological examination. In this case, we evaluated glomus tumor of stomach according to 2019 WHO Digestive System Tumors and accurate diagnosed was Uncertain Malignant Potential Gastric Glomus Tumor.
血管球瘤是一种罕见的间叶组织肿瘤，由血管球组成。这些肿瘤最常见的发生部位是周围软组织，尤其是四肢末端。它们很少发生在胃肠道，最常见的部位是胃。由于这种肿瘤罕见，且在临床和病理表现上与其他间叶组织病变有重叠特征，术前诊断可能困难。因此，只有通过组织病理学检查才能排除鉴别诊断并做出明确诊断。在本病例中，我们根据2019年世界卫生组织消化系统肿瘤分类对胃血管球瘤进行了评估，并准确诊断为具有不确定恶性潜能的胃血管球瘤。
